Weddle first joined the Rams in 2019, making 16 starts and finishing second on the team in tackles with 108. Despite having one more year left on his deal, he decided to retire after the regular season ended and the Rams missed the playoffs. 

Despite spending just one year with the franchise, Weddle is highly respected by the Rams players and coaching staff. He was selected as the team captain in his lone season and also served as a defensive signal-caller.

Besides the Rams, Weddle also suited up for the LA Chargers and Baltimore Ravens before his initial retirement. He made the All-Pro team five times alongside his six Pro Bowl appearances and was selected to NFL 2010s All-Decade Team. His career stats include 1,178 tackles, 9.5 sacks, 99 pass deflections, 29 interceptions, and four defensive touchdowns.

Weddle won’t be the only defensive back joining the Rams for their playoff run. The team also signed veterans Blake Countess and Sharrod Neasman to the practice squad and promoted third-year safety Jake Gervase to the active roster.

Weddle finished 2019 with 108 tackles and four pass deflections. He had one year left on his $10.5 million deal he signed with Rams in March 2019.
