Eric Weddle is going into his 10th NFL season and is a three-time Pro Bowler, but he’s new to Baltimore.
Here are five things about the recently-signed safety that you may not know, including quotes from his 2013 book, “No Excuses, No Regrets: The Eric Weddle Story.”
1) He almost didn’t survive birth.
Weddle’s mother, Debbie Weddle, was only in her second trimester early in the fall of 1984 when she began leaking amniotic fluid and body tissue. After being rushed to the hospital, doctors told her and her husband, Steve Weddle, that she was either going to have a miscarriage or need to go into labor.
