Isaac Bruce
Career Stats: 223 games played (201 starts), 1,024 receptions, 15,208 yards, 91 TD
The least well-known member of the Greatest Show on Turf, Bruce, was a reliable performer who contributed to the development of one of the league’s best offenses. Bruce had talent because he was perhaps the best No. 2 receiver of all time. In order to consistently perform at a high level when they are not the team’s first choice, a certain type of player is needed. When Bruce first joined the Rams, he received a lot of attention. The Memphis product was targeted 199 times in his second season, which is the fifth-highest total in NFL history since targets began to be kept track of in 1992. Torry Holt, though, was acquired by the Rams in 1999 using a first-round pick. Bruce switched to a supporting role and excelled on short- to medium-distance courses. He rose to fourth place all-time in receiving yards thanks to his dedication and extraordinary longevity.
