St. Louis (AP) -- The St. Louis Rams will retire Marshall Faulk's jersey at halftime of a December 20 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Faulk came to St. Louis in 1999 and helped lead the Rams to a Super Bowl championship that first season and another appearance two years later. He was the NFL's MVP in 2000 and the league's offensive player of the year in 1999, 2000 and 2001.

Faulk announced his retirement in March.

Halftime ceremonies will be led by sportscaster Bob Costas and will feature a video tribute before Faulk's jersey number 28 is retired.
