Former Cleveland Browns tackle and future Hall of Famer Joe Thomas, a frequent NFL Network and Sports Illustrated contributor, insisted in a Tweet that Cincinnati Bengals star receiver A.J. Green deserves best-NFL-receiver consideration, and praised the way Green goes about his business.
Thomas responded to a Wilde And Tausch Twitter Question, "Who is the best WR in the NFL?" that had the Pittsburgh Steelers' Antonio Brown, the New York Giants' Odell Beckham Jr., the New Orleans Saints' Michael Thomas and the Atlanta Falcons' Julio Jones by suggesting that Green is the "anti-OBJ":
Green ranks 17th in the NFL this season with 409 receiving yards, but his five touchdown catches are tied for second and he had 112 yards on six catches in the Bengals' come-from-behind win against the Dolphins on Sunday.
