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.

The Rams also activated Blake Countess from the practice squad, giving them better depth in the secondary.
