Dick Vermeil coached both the Eagles and Rams during his 15-year career, so it’s only fitting that he’ll be honored at halftime on Sunday when the two teams square off at SoFi Stadium. The Pro Football Hall of Fame announced Thursday that Vermeil will be recognized this weekend with a special halftime ceremony.
Vermeil will be honored when two of his former teams, the Los Angeles Rams and Philadelphia Eagles, face off during Week 5. Adrian Allison, Chief Relationship Officer at the Hall of Fame, will be on hand for the ceremony at SoFi Stadium, with the game scheduled for 4:05 p.m. ET.
