Rams Stars Keep Fueling Speculation About an Aaron Donald Comeback

Adam Schefter said Donald is more likely than not to play for the Rams next season after a workout at team facility.

  • On Monday, ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter suggested a return for retired All-Pro defensive tackle Aaron Donald is increasingly likely during an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show.
  • Donald retired at age 32 in March 2024 after a lack of passion, but the Rams' recent acquisition of edge rusher Myles Garrett has reignited his interest in potentially returning.
  • During a July 10 session at the facility, Donald tested his ability to handle a football-style workout, which Schefter described as a trial method to see how his body and mind reacted to being back in pads.
  • If the 35-year-old defender returns, Schefter believes the team could initially manage his workload by limiting him to 12-15 snaps per game as Rams veterans and rookies report to training camp on July 25.
  • The Rams appear to be legitimate Super Bowl contenders after reaching the NFC Championship Game last season, and whether Donald decides to participate remains the final unresolved question of the team's offseason.
