Report: Louisville DE A.J. Green to Enter Transfer Portal

The story will be updated.

The Louisville football program has just suffered their biggest expected transfer portal defection of the cycle up to this point.

Standout defensive end Adonijah "A.J." Green plans to enter his name into the transfer portal, according to multiple reports and first reported by On3's Hayes Fawcett.

Green is the second Louisville player to announce his intentions to enter the portal following the Cardinals' win over Toledo in the Boca Raton Bowl, joining running back Shaun Boykins. He's the fifth scholarship player overall, following safety Daeh McCullough, quarterback Brady Allen and defensive tackle Selah Brown.

Under recently-adopted NCAA guidelines, the 14-day portal window will not officially open until Jan 2. This is the only opportunity for players to enter the portal following the removal of the spring transfer window.

In their third season under head coach Jeff Brohm, Louisville went 9-4 overall, including a 4-4 mark in ACC play and a 27-22 win over Toledo in the Boca Raton Bowl. The Cardinals have won at least nine games in all three seasons under Brohm, doing so for the first time since 2012-14.
