Eric Weddle got a call from the Los Angeles Rams last week to gauge his interest in returning for the team’s playoff run. He accepted, calling it “an opportunity of a lifetime.”
The Rams added him to the practice squad initially and on Monday, they promoted him to the active roster, making him eligible to play against the Cardinals. With Jordan Fuller and Taylor Rapp both out, Weddle is set to contribute on defense after being retired for two years.
The Rams also activated Blake Countess from the practice squad, giving them better depth in the secondary.
