Weddle Fined for Watching Daughter Perform at Halftime

Prior to the 2015 campaign, Weddle was a brief holdout, skipping the Chargers' voluntary workouts because he "felt disrespected by the way the organization [was] handling [contract extension] negotiations," per ESPN.com's Eric D. Williams.

In light of Weddle's deteriorating relationship with the organization and the Chargers' woeful 4-11 record entering Week 17, it stands to reason the safety will flee San Diego as a free agent this offseason.

According to Acee's report, Weddle didn't tell team officials he would remain on the field to watch the halftime show. It may well have been his final home game, and now the memory has been soured with a deduction from his paycheck.

Canter said Weddle was placed on injured reserve and told he couldn't travel with the team for its last game against the Denver Broncosbecause the plane was "too small."

A subsequent tweet from Canter seemed to ensure Weddle won't don a Chargers uniform beyond this season:





In response to Acee's story, Canter also said the declaration that Weddle's relationship with the Chargers is not "fine" is the "understatement of the decade."

Especially now that Weddle has been placed on IR against his wishes, he has little reason to stick around in San Diego. The Chargers didn't reward his loyalty and consistent production with a contract extension or fair treatment this year, so he's bound to be playing elsewhere come next season.

Weddle will have no shortage of suitors should he make it known he's leaving the team for which he's played the first nine years of his NFLcareer. He is among the best defensive backs in football and will likely be rewarded with a huge payday.

I'm legit laughing at the audacity......on a related point, think about the teams that are supposedly on the way to LA. Only 1 of those 3 are managed in a reasonably competent way (Surprisingly it's the Raiders). The NFL is about to really pour jelly on themselves if they think people in LA will show up for some bullshyt just because it's the NFL and the stadium is shiny. LA folks only show up for winners and/or stars.

I mean he should probably be in the locker room at halftime. That looks worse on Weddle than SD.
