Eric Weddle is coming out of retirement to rejoin the Los Angeles Rams for the NFL playoffs.
The former All-Pro safety's agent, David Canter, on Wednesday revealed that Weddle will return to the Rams almost two years after calling time on his career.
With Jordan Fuller out for the season due an ankle injury and Taylor Rapp in concussion protocol, Los Angeles have turned to a familiar face for the postseason.
The 37-year-old Weddle quit following the 2019 season after just one campaign with the Rams, who take on the Arizona Cardinals in a wild-card clash at SoFi Stadium on Monday.
A six-time Pro Bowler, the veteran had brought his playing days to an end following 13 seasons in the league.
Weddle has tallied 29 interceptions, five defensive touchdowns, eight forced fumbles and 1,179 tackles in 201 career games.
He spent nine seasons with the then-San Diego Chargers, before joining the Baltimore Ravens and the Rams.
