Trent Green Gets Nod

The Miami Dolphins announced today that Trent Green has beat out Cleo Lemon as the starting quarterback for the 2007-08' season. The Dolphins acquired Green from the Kansas City Chiefs in early June for a draft pick, expecting that he would emerge as Miami's 11th different starting quarterback since Dan Marino retired seven years ago.Green threw for 21,459 yards and 118 touchdowns in 5{ seasons as the starter in Kansas City, but missed eight games last season because of a concussion suffered in the season opener -- and wanted a trade because he felt the Chiefs wouldn't give him a chance to vie against Damon Huard and Brodie Croyle for the job.
