ST. LOUIS (AP) — Isaac Bruce has become the first member of the “Greatest Show on Turf” era Rams to have his number retired.
The Rams honored the 37-year-old retired wide receiver before Sunday’s game against Carolina. Dick Vermeil, the coach who led the Rams to victory in the 2000 Super Bowl, was in attendance. So was Mike Martz, the offensive coordinator for that team and the coach when the Rams lost the 2002 Super Bowl to New England, and several former teammates.
Bruce was drafted by the Los Angeles Rams in the second round in 1994 and spent 14 seasons with the team. He holds every major receiving record in Rams history. He spent two seasons in San Francisco before retiring in July.
The Rams honored Bruce on Sunday by wearing throwback uniforms from that first Super Bowl season.
