Looking back at 2017: Green played in six games as a true freshman last season after enrolling early to get a head start on his Illini career. He led the team with four receptions against Iowa — half of his season total — and finished his first year with eight receptions for 75 yards while also playing on special teams as a part-time punt returner.

Looking ahead to 2018: Green's first season wasn't without its struggles.
