The Rams will have several members of the Super Bowl XXXIV team in attendance on Sunday night to celebrate the 25th anniversary of their win

The Rams will have some special guests in attendance on Sunday night when they host the Eagles at SoFi Stadium. They’re celebrating the 25th anniversary of the 1999 Rams team that won Super Bowl XXXIV against the Titans, welcoming back several members of the championship squad.

Kurt Warner, Isaac Bruce, Orlando Pace, Marshall Faulk, Torry Holt and Mike Jones will all be participating in the festivities this weekend, ending with a prime-time game against the Eagles at SoFi.

“The history of the Rams cannot be written without names like Bruce, Faulk, Holt, Pace and Warner, and the history of the NFL cannot be written without The Greatest Show On Turf and The Tackle,” Rams president Kevin Demoff said in the release. “As their legacies live on in Canton, in their hometowns and across the world thanks to on-field heroics and a Super Bowl championship, their impact continues to be felt in communities across the country through their commitment to important causes. We look forward to teaming up with our ’99 team and our partners to give back this weekend and we are thrilled to celebrate one of the greatest teams in league history on Sunday Night Football.”

In addition to the players who will be attending the game, Holt and Pace will also join Warner on NFL Network Sunday morning for “NFL Gameday Morning.” Players will help distribute more than 400 turkeys to local families Sunday when they visit “A Place Called Home,” a non-profit community center in Los Angeles.

Finally, Smash Mouth will perform at halftime of the game, celebrating their fame in the ‘90s.

Report: Former Titans DT Josh Evans is battling ‘dire cancer diagnosis’

Josh Evans played on the Titans’ Super Bowl XXXIV team.

Former Tennessee Titans defensive tackle, Josh Evans, is reportedly battling what is a “dire cancer diagnosis” in Atlanta.

According to Sports Illustrated’s David Boclair, Evans originally had tumors on his kidneys, gall bladder, intestines and pancreas treated earlier this year, but now it appears the cancer has spread to his spine and liver.

Now, the former Tennessee Titans defensive tackle – a starter in Super Bowl XXXIV – is in the fight of his life following a dire cancer diagnosis.

Evans, 47, is at an Atlanta cancer center where doctors determined that the disease, first diagnosed earlier this year, has spread to his spine and liver, according to prominent Titans fan Penny Kennedy, who has remained close to Evans since his playing days.

Originally, tumors were discovered on his kidneys, gall bladder, intestines and pancreas in January. Following treatment, doctors were optimistic that they had removed all of the cancer, Kennedy said.

Evans played in six seasons for the Houston Oilers/Titans during his career after going undrafted out of Alabama-Birmingham and was a starter on the Super Bowl XXXIV team. During the Titans’ playoff run, Evans totaled 18 combined tackles and 1.5 sacks.

After moving on from the Titans following the 2001 season, he went on to play for the New York Jets for three years before retiring in 2005.
