Rams lure Eric Weddle out of retirement for postseason run
Veteran safety Eric Weddle is coming out of retirement to play for the Los Angeles Rams in the postseason, his agent told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Weddle retired during the 2020 offseason after a single campaign with the Rams. He failed to record an interception but notched 108 tackles over 16 starts in 2019.
The 37-year-old is set to help an L.A. secondary that recently lost safety Jordan Fuller for the remainder of the campaign due to an ankle injury.
Weddle made a name for himself with the then-San Diego Chargers over the first nine seasons of his career. He intercepted 19 passes, including a league-high seven in 2011.
He later spent three seasons with the Baltimore Ravens from 2016-2018 - earning a Pro Bowl nod in every campaign - before linking up with the Rams in 2019.
The six-time Pro Bowler rejoins L.A. ahead of its wild-card game against the Arizona Cardinals on Monday night.
