Fun fact: the Rams were the first NFL team to have a logo on their helmets, when in 1948 halfback Fred Gehrke, who worked as a commercial artist in off-season, painted ram horns on the team’s leather helmets.
They’ve been there ever since, including in 1964-72, when they wore blue-and-white uniforms. The helmet was also blue and white, with the horns the latter color. And 45 years later, here we are again. With the Rams back in Los Angeles, they’re ditching the gold and going back to the iconic look made famous by Merlin Olsen, Rosey Grier and Deacon Jones.
