Aaron Donald Is Active for the Rams Against the Giants in the Final Step in His Comeback
The 35-year-old defensive tackle is expected to play a reduced role after two seasons away, and the Rams may be without Myles Garrett, who had knee surgery.
- On Monday, Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald returned to action against the New York Giants at SoFi Stadium, ending a 981-day absence from professional football.
- Donald retired in March 2024 after a 10-year career, but ended his retirement late last month exactly 90 days after the Rams acquired Myles Garrett from the Cleveland Browns.
- ESPN sideline reporter Lisa Salters reported Donald will likely play 30-40 snaps against the Giants, while edge rusher Myles Garrett remains on injured reserve following knee surgery.
- Bolstering a defense that allowed 174 rushing yards against San Francisco last week, Los Angeles hopes Donald's interior presence provides an immediate impact against New York's physical running game.
- The three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year seeks no special treatment, aiming only to "be productive" upon his return despite facing a different role than during his final season.
