Early life

A. J. Green is the son of Woodrow and Dora Green; Woodrow was a steel worker and truck driver and Dora, a clerk at a Wal-Mart.[1][2] When A. J. was age 4, his only sibling, older brother Avionce, died in a car wreck on the way to a school carnival; the wreck also left their aunt paralyzed.[3] Green was on his elementary school's juggling team, telling The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that he learned to juggle as early as second grade. Green said he could juggle as many as four items at once, and that the ability helped the development of his hand-eye coordination.[4]

High school career

Green attended Summerville High School, where he was a three-sport athlete in football, basketball, and track.[5] He played as a wide receiver for the Summerville Green Wave high school football team, under coach John McKissick.

Green was also on the school's track & field team, where he competed as a long jumper (top-jump of 19 ft 6 in) and triple jumper (40 ft 0 in).[11]
