Rams Trivia - Share What You Know

QB Jamie Martin, I believe, is the Ramplayer with the most jersey numbers: 8, 9, 11 and 12. I'm not sure if he also wore No. 10?

Can anyone verify the 10 jersey please?

This next trivia is a sad a shameful piece of Rams history:

In the fall of 1998, Little — his blood alcohol nearly twice the then-legal limit — ran a red light in St. Louis and slammed his Lincoln Navigator into a car driven by Susan Gutweiler, 47. The impact broke her neck and caused her lungs to collapse. She never regained consciousness and died the next day. Little pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter and was sentenced to 90 nights in jail as part of a work-release program. He also completed 1,000 hours of community service and was placed on four years' probation.

Personally, I am ashamed that he is with the Rams. For those of you that even think about getting behind the wheel after drinking, don't.
