Harold Green Jr. (born January 29, 1968), is an American former professional football player who was a running back in the National Football League (NFL). He was selected by the Cincinnati Bengals in the 2nd round of the 1990 NFL draft.[1] He attended Stratford High School in Goose Creek, SC. A 6'2", 222-lb running back, he played college football for the South Carolina Gamecocks, where he rushed for 2,617 yards, caught 76 passes for 661 yards, and scored 26 touchdowns in three seasons.
