Los Angeles Rams safety Eric Weddle is poised to play in Week 2 despite taking a knee to the helmet in the season opener.

Rams coach Sean McVay said Wednesday that he anticipates Weddle playing against the New Orleans Saints after he went through the concussion protocol without issue.

Sean McVay says he anticipates safety Eric Weddle playing against Saints Weddle was placed into concussion protocol after he took Christian McCaffrey's knee to his head. "He’s feeling good. I think he was asymptomatic, so he’s on track," McVay says.

This is excellent news for the Rams, who will want their secondary in good shape against Drew Brees and the Saints. The 35-year-old safety left Week 1 early after he was badly bloodied when Christian McCaffrey’s knee collided with his helmet, but it appears no major damage was done.
