Incredibly fast receivers combined with a QB that was reported to be top shelf left the Rams confidently marching into the 1999 season. The third week of the preseason, in a game against the San Diego Chargers, Green had his ACL ripped – done for the season. Head coach Dick Vermeil sent Kurt Eugene Warner on to the field.
