Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver AJ Green has admitted that he will have a tough time up against Antonio Cromartie when they face the New York Jets.

Green said that as a receiver he feels confident up against most cornerbacks but Cromartie will be harder than most.

"He's a long corner," Green is quoted as saying by the Jets' official website. "He's a veteran corner. He's been around the league a long time, so I'm going to have to work him.

"Corners are going to get beat here and there," he added, "but I think he's one of the best in the league."

The Jets visit the Bengals on Sunday.
