Eric Weddle has developed a reputation as one of the NFL s best defensive minds, a fundamentally sound tackling machine, and a reliable last line of defense in the secondary for the San Diego Chargers. Prior to the 2011 season, the Chargers made Eric one of the highest paid safeties in league history by signing him to a five-year, $40 million contract. Honestly, who would have ever thought I would be at where I am today? Eric said. I was a kid who loved sports, who struggled, who was benched, who was injured, but I didn t let the little things get me down. The little things don t affect who I am or what I m about, but they drive me to do better. To get better today, you must demand more than you did yesterday. Winners pay the price to reach their goals. Weddle s story is about overcoming adversity and accomplishing impossible dreams. It s about an athlete who surprised his family and friends by joining the Mormon church, and about how his faith has continued to bless his life. It s a story about epic wins and devastating losses, confidence and character. It s a story of a man who values his family above all else. In short, it s a story about living each day with no excuses and no regrets.
