'Weddle', the unofficial NFL 'Wordle' spinoff, was created by two high schoolers

All it took was one biology class to create the latest Wordle variant.

Two high school students, whose parents asked that their names not be shared because they're minors, recently came up with the game of Weddle -- and yes it is named after former NFL safety Eric Weddle.

"One of us develops the website and handles all bugs and updates, while the other runs social media," the creators told ESPN.

Weddle told ESPN's Jamison Henley that the creators had reached out to him for authorization, describing it as "Pretty wild."

In Weddle, the user has eight tries to guess an NFL player's name, team, division, position, height, age and jersey number.
