Ahman Green's last two seasons, both with the Houston Texans, ended with knee injuries that landed him on injured reserve.

With 11 pro seasons under his belt and a slew of impressive accomplishments, Green could have simply faded into the background and gotten on with his post-football life. But that didn't feel right, and Green just wasn't willing to let his NFL career come to a close like that.

So, upon being released by Houston in February, he worked diligently to rehab his latest knee injury and hoped he'd get a call from someone in need of a running back.

For Green, it couldn't have worked out better that the call came from the Packers, who signed him on Wednesday to bolster their running-back depth when DeShawn Wynn was placed on injured reserve following morning knee surgery. Green became one of the most prolific running backs in Green Bay history from 2000 to 2006, and he's thrilled to be back, even if it's in a lesser role than when he left.
