Which Panthers players also played for Rams? August 25 NFL Immaculate Grid answers

Today's Immaculate Grid will focus on players who represented the Los Angeles Rams and Carolina Panthers. This Immaculate Grid will showcase the players' careers and impact on the gridiron.

First is retired wide receiver Ricky Proehl, who played for the Rams, Panthers, Phoenix/Arizona Cardinals, Seattle Seahawks, Chicago Bears and Indianapolis Colts in his 17-year NFL career.

The Phoenix/Arizona Cardinals selected Ricky Proehl in Round 3 of the 1990 NFL Draft. The Wake Forest alum quickly hit the ground running, becoming a contributing member of the franchise's receiving corps. He enjoyed a NFL career filled with highlights, Super Bowl wins and a handful of franchise records.

Proehl joined the Rams ahead of the 1998 NFL season on a four-year, $6 million deal. He was a featured member of "The Greatest Show on Turf," contributing to the team's Super Bowl XXXIV win.

In the Super Bowl game, he caught one pass for 11 yards. He later helped the team to another Super Bowl game appearance, though it lost to the Tom Brady-led New England Patriots in Super Bowl XXXVI. He did put up a solid performance in that game. He left the Rams after the 2002 NFL season as a team legend and a member of franchise lore.

Following his stellar stint with the Rams, he signed with the Carolina Panthers as an unrestricted free agent at the beginning of the 2003 season. As a Panther, he participated in Super Bowl XXXVIII. Unfortunately, he was again on the losing side, as the Patriots won via a dramatic last-second field goal.
