Eric Weddle To Retire After Super Bowl
3 years agoLos Angeles Rams safety Eric Weddle, who came out of retirement to join the Rams for their playoff run this year, said this week that he plans to retire again following Super Bowl LVI. The 37-year-old played only 19 defensive snaps in the team's wild-card win over the Arizona Cardinals and then saw action on 60 plays in the Divisional Round win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before playing on all 50 snaps in the NFC Championship win over the San Francisco 49ers. The two-time All-Pro and six-time Pro Bowler actually led the Rams in tackles last Sunday against the 49ers, and he's chasing his first Super Bowl ring that eluded him in his first 13 NFL seasons. Weddle's ability to return to the NFL after two years out of the league is a testament to his physical abilities.
