Constant rumors and speculation on Tuesday lead to the actual signing of Ahman Green on Wednesday, as the former Packer will soon be in the backfield for the Green and Gold once again. The signing of Green was something I wouldn't have even though of a week ago, but I do kind of like this whole resigning of old veterans thing the Packers have been doing lately.
It turns out that trying out Ahman Green wasn't just something done as a favor to him, but because the Packers actually needed another running back after DeShawn Wynn was placed on the injured reserve due to knee surgery. Green is actually just 46 yards away from becoming the Packers all-time leading rusher, which was actually a bit surprising to me. He'll wear number 34, which will be weird to see.
Don't expect Green to be in action this Sunday, although I would love nothing more than to see him in uniform as we head down to The Cleve this weekend. I wouldn't be surprised though to see him against the Vikings come next Sunday.
Welcome back, Batman.
