1. I know at least 4 names but not 5... John Williams never played in the 1980 SB he was lost for the season w/injury around week 4 1979 I think? Trick question since he was on the roster at some point though...
2. Scored a TD on the Rams' first drive
3. Yo Murphy 2002 vs Pats
4. Donald, Havenstein, Scott
5. The one we all know with the guy from Bonnie & Clyde, hah never heard of the others

4. Nick Scott is…incorrect!

For the movies, it's Heaven Can Wait and American Underdog for sure. I'll guess "Invincible" if there's a reference in there (in the coda at end of movie) about Vermeil going on to win a Super Bowl with the Rams.

A fourth option: I distinctly remember in "Cast Away" that Helen Hunt's character informs Tom Hank's' character that the Titans lost the Super Bowl. I forget if she mentions if it was the Rams that beat 'em, though!

I got Donald and Hav.

Higbee maybe?

The Williams question was a great one, @AvengerRam. Can't say I know who John Williams is though. I just think of him as the guy who composes movie music

So I did some research on google and found that at the end of the movie "Invincible", there is only a reference to Vermeil taking the Eagles to the SB in 1980. There is no reference to Vermeil and SB XXXIV.

As for "Cast Away", I found the scene on Youtube and my memory was correct-- Helen Hunt's character makes reference to the Tennessee Titans losing SB XXXIV, but she doesn't explicitly say the word "Rams." She says about the Titans, "It was so exciting. They almost won.. by one yard. One lousy yard right at the end."

Anyway, here's the scene, and the talk of football and SB XXXIV runs from 1:55 to 2:45 in the video.

I bet there's a different movie that references the Rams winning a SB more prominently than "Cast Away", but I can't think of one off the top of my head...

So besides Hav, Donald and Higbee, any other current Rams who were on the Rams for both Super Bowls 53 and 56? Can't think of any more based on memory alone...

Amazing, the rate of roster turnover in the NFL...

EDIT: So if the question is which current Rams PLAYED in both SB LIII and LVI, that's tough. Kupp missed LIII and (I forgot) Higbee missed LVI. I looked it up and see there are 3 other Rams that were on both SB season rosters. However, I'm still not sure who (besides Donald and Hav) actually PLAYED in both games AND are still on the roster. I'll wait and let someone else try to guess since I had to rely on google to remember everyone in the 2018 draft class...

Jonah Williams didn't play in the SB either. The question was "each Rams SB team has had a player with this last name", not that they played in the SB. That's the way I read it. I remembered John Williams because he started every game for the Rams from 1972-1978. He started 7 games in 1979 but was active for 12. BTW, I was wrong on Grant Williams. He didn't join the Rams until 2002.

#2 is stumping me. They both didn't score on the first drive. Both scored on the Rams second drive. They both gave the Rams a lead. But so did Jeff Wilkins in SB34, as well as score on the Rams second drive.

Both scored on their first touch of the game?

Spoiler: If you want the answer…

Only Rams to score a TD in the FIRST QUARTER of a Super Bowl.
