Weddle reverted to the Rams practice squad Tuesday. Weddle was elevated from the practice squad for Monday's wild-card victory over the Cardinals, playing 19 snaps at free safety while splitting time with Terrell Burgess. The 37-year-old may be activated again for Sunday's divisional-round matchup with the Buccaneers if starter Taylor Rapp (concussion) remains inactive.

The Rams signed Weddle to their practice squad Wednesday. Weddle hasn't made an appearance in the NFL since 2019, but he'll come out of retirement ahead of the playoffs after Jordan Fuller (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday. While he'll begin on the team's practice squad, it wouldn't be surprising to see him join the active roster ahead of Monday's wild-card matchup against the Cardinals. Both Weddle and Nick Scott could see snaps in Fuller's absence.

Weddle, who retired from the NFL in February, has reportedly received contract offers from teams and would be willing to entertain a comeback in the right scenario, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. While Earl Thomas remains the top safety on the open market, the 35-year-old Weddle may prove to be a more palatable and cost-effective veteran alternative for contending clubs looking for help on the back end of the defense. A six-time Pro Bowler, Weddle was a 16-game starter for the Rams in 2019, finishing with 108 tackles and four passes defensed.

Weddle recorded 10 tackles (four solo) during Sunday's 20-7 loss to San Francisco. The veteran has now piled up 51 tackles (28 solo) through six contests, which makes him one of the more reliable defensive backs in IDP settings. With the Los Angeles offense in a bit of a funk, Weddle's fantasy value could also be trending up.

The Ravens released Weddle on Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Weddle joins a crowded field at safety after a three-year run with Baltimore that resulted in Pro-Bowl appearances each season. The 34-year-old remains at the top of his game and should garner significant interest on the open market.
