Former Quakes keeper to appear on CBS' Amazing Race

Andrew Weber Timbers

Former San Jose Earthquakes goalkeeper Andrew Weber took a break from soccer during the offseason to spend time with family...sort of.


Weber and his brother, Elliott, were among the list of 11 teams announced Wednesday morning for CBS' 20th season of Amazing Race. The reality TV show pits teams of two against each other in a race around the world.


Among the list of teams was Rachel Reilly and Brendon Villegas, a pair of former Big Brother contestants. Amazing Race 20 premieres February 19 at 8 p.m. on CBS.
