Just weeks after Trent Green's career appeared in jeopardy of being over, the quarterback has a new home.

Green told FOXSports.com that he's agreed to a three-year, $9 million deal with the Rams.

The Rams were an attractive destination for Green because it allowed him to go back home to Missouri as well as play for an organization he had already spent time with in 1999 and 2000.

In his second stint with the Rams, Green will be the backup behind Marc Bulger. He was supposed to be the starter in 1999 before a preseason knee surgery paved the way for Kurt Warner, who led the Rams to their first Super Bowl victory.

Green visited Rams Park last week and had been mulling a decision whether to keep playing. He replaces Gus Frerotte as Bulger's backup.

"We have now solidified our quarterback position," coach Scott Linehan said. "You will be hard-pressed to find the quality we have at that position."

Both Green and Bulger have played in two Pro Bowls.

Green believed his career was over a mere three months ago after suffering his second concussion in as many years. However, he was cleared late last month to return to football.

The Dolphins placed Green on injured reserve in October, then released him after the season ended.

Green played in just five games for Miami in 2007, completing 85 of 141 passes for 987 yards with five touchdowns and seven interceptions. He made the Pro Bowl in 2003 and 2005 as a member of the Kansas City Chiefs.
