Aaron Donald News
The Los Angeles Rams reworked All-World defensive tackle Aaron Donald's three remaining contract years to give him a huge $40 million raise through the 2024 season, making him the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history at 31 years old, according to sources. Donald will get $95 million through 2024. He's earned it, though, as he is one of just three defensive players since the 1970 merger to earn a Pro Bowl selection in each of his first eight seasons, joining Lawrence Taylor (10) and Derrick Thomas (nine). There was speculation that the star pass-rusher might retire after the Rams won the Super Bowl in February, but Donald will return in 2022 and will continue to be one of the most coveted defensive linemen in IDP leagues after recording 12.5 sacks and a career-high 84 tackles in 17 games in 2021.
Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald is still seeking a bump in pay. But he also hasn't ruled out retirement. However, contract talks "are trending in the right direction," according to head coach Sean McVay. The 31-year-old is coming off another fantastic season, finishing the 2021-22 campaign with 84 total tackles, 12.5 sacks, and four forced fumbles. He was also instrumental in helping L.A. defeat Cincinnati to win Super Bowl LVI. Donald currently has three years remaining on a six-year, $135 million deal. There will likely be more news to come surrounding this situation. Yet, if Donald returns, he'll continue to be a top option for managers in IDP formats.
Los Angeles Rams defensive end Aaron Donald mentioned that he is at peace with retirement after recent contract discussions. A Super Bowl victory has made Donald rethink his retirement. Donald is a Super Bowl champion and a no doubt Hall of Fame player. There is not much left for Donald to accomplish during his career. However, a massive contract offer could make Donald play a few more seasons. Although, it sounds like Donald is fine with retirement.
