ST. LOUIS, Sept. 30 (UPI) -- St. Louis quarterback Marc Bulger was named the starter for the remainder of the season Tuesday by the Rams' new head coach, Jim Haslett.
The move came one day after Haslett replaced Scott Linehan, who was fired after an 0-4 start. Linehan benched Bulger last week in favor of Trent Green, but the Rams still lost to Buffalo 31-14.
"(Bulger) is going to be the quarterback and he will be the starting quarterback for the rest of the year unless something happens," Haslett said. "I talked to (Bulger) and (Green) about it, and it is more of a gut feeling on my part."
Bulger passed for 519 yards and two touchdowns, with two interceptions through the first three games. In July 2007, the Bulger was signed to a six-year, $65 million extension that made him the highest paid player in franchise history.
