Anti-Smoking Activism
editWould mention of Green's work with the DC initiative to end smoking be worth mentioning. I don't know what section it would go under, but there are some sources on the internet that can verify this claim. The hotline is 1-800-QUIT-NOW. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Liberoarbitrio (talk • contribs) 21:15, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
I would say yes and add it to the charities and foundations section. That's where it would best fit, since it's work for a foundation. Superman7515 (talk) 01:45, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
Incorrect statistic
editIt says in the NFL Records portion that Green has the most games played for one team (295), but if you go to Bruce Matthews' profile, he has 296 games played, all for the Houston/Tennessee franchise, which is actually considered one team by the NFL.

Change rating from Start?
editArticle seems rather good actually. What does it lack to upgrade to A or B?
Times, 40-yard-dash speek
editI deleted the 40-yard-dash times listed since what was listed has never been confirmed and there's no reliable citations listed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.166.238.253 (talk) 08:23, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
Although you did delete the 40yd dash information, it still reigns true. He was the fastest man in the NFL and ran one of the fastest (if not the fastest) times in the world (4.08) Garrydfuller (talk) 15:33, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
