OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- The Baltimore Ravens have cut free safety and defensive leader Eric Weddle.
Weddle, who turned 34 in January, reached the Pro Bowl six times, including all three seasons in Baltimore. Considered the quarterback of the NFL's top-ranked defense, he finished third on the team in tackles with 68.
His football intelligence was key in the defense's success and allowed Baltimore to continually change coverages to keep teams off-balance. But Weddle recorded a career-low three pass breakups in 2018 and didn't make an interception for the first time since 2015.
