ST. LOUIS, Sept. 23 (UPI) -- The St. Louis Rams, winless after three games this season, have replaced Marc Bulger with Trent Green at quarterback.

Rams Coach Scott Linehan said Tuesday that Green, who signed with St. Louis in the offseason and last started an NFL game the fifth week of last season with Miami, would be his starter Sunday. The Rams next play the 3-0 Buffalo Bills in St. Louis.

Bulger had two touchdowns and two interceptions in St. Louis' first three games.

Green is in his second stint with the Rams. He's also been with San Diego, Washington, Kansas City and Miami since he was drafted by the Chargers in 1993. A two-time Pro Bowl selection, he helped the Rams to a 23-16 win over Tennessee in Super Bowl XXXIV.
