Hello Samy,
Travel to Puerto Rico does not count as leaving the United States. Puerto Rico, as a US Territory, is exactly the same as crossing from one state to another. Just be sure to bring your Green Card and some sort of photo ID, but there are no Customs entry checkpoints when you arrive on domestic flights.
Thanks,
Christian M. Frank
