Virgil Green says he had to get out of Denver, and has found his happy place with the Chargers

This season as a whole, he knew he never was going to return there.

“My mind was made up,” the Chargers’ starting tight end said Thursday. “I knew I wasn’t going back to Denver. I knew my time there was up.”

After seven seasons with the Broncos, Green signed a three-year deal with the Chargers in March, on the first day of free agency.

He explained that he felt a general indifference from the Denver organization toward the way he played and prepared.

Green also suggested he was typecast by the team as a blocker and rarely was given the opportunity to contribute more.
