Eric Weddle is 31 years old. He’s gone to three Pro Bowls.
And in his mind, he’s just getting started.
Asked in “The Lounge” podcast whether he’s entering the prime of his career, Weddle didn’t hesitate.
“Oh definitely,” he said.
“I’ve never been not sore in camp ever in my career until now. I think you hit your peak muscle and strength in your mid-30s. Statistics show that.”
Weddle was graded as the 12th-best safety in the NFL last year by Pro Football Focus (PFF). Before that, ever since 2010, Weddle has ranked in PFF’s top five safeties, and was No.
