Aaron Donald News
Los Angeles Rams defensive lineman Aaron Donald (ribs) said that he's pain-free after he injured his ribs and left the wild-card win over the Seahawks last Saturday. Donald said that he felt like he had the wind knocked out of him when the injury initially occurred. "The way I'm feeling right now, I'm not too worried about it... I feel good, I feel strong, and I'll be ready come Saturday," Donald said. The All-Pro pass-rusher isn't expected to do much in practice this week, though, but he's expected to play against the Packers. Donald is a big reason why the Rams Defense has been the top-ranked unit in the league in 2020, but they'll face a tall task against Green Bay this weekend. It may not be wise to expect LA's defense to finish as the top fantasy unit in the Divisional Round, but at least they'll have Donald in the fold.
Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that he doesn't expect defensive lineman Aaron Donald's (ribs) injury to "affect his game status for this week." Donald was injured while taking Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson down on a tackle late in the wild-card win on Saturday. The All-Pro pass-rusher made several trips to the locker room and had trouble breathing on the sidelines. Donald didn't return to the game, but he likely would have if the game was still in question. The 29-year-old is the heart and soul of this Rams Defense, so it's great news that his injury wasn't serious enough to keep him out in the Divisional Round against the Packers. LA's defense was the top unit in the NFL this year, but they'll have a tough task on their hands this weekend and won't be the top fantasy selection for the Divisional Round.
Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that the team is hopeful that defensive lineman Aaron Donald (ribs) will be available to play in the Divisional Round next weekend after the Rams beat the division-rival Seahawks in the wild-card round on Saturday. Donald was injured late in the game when he was taking quarterback Russell Wilson down on a sack and never returned to the contest. The 29-year-old All-Pro pass-rusher finished the game with three solo tackles (two for loss), three QB hits and two sacks. Donald has been a Pro Bowler each of his seven seasons in the NFL and has also been a first-team All-Pro five times. He remains one of the league's best pass-rushers and is a must-start IDP defensive lineman anytime he's on the field. It sounds like Donald should be available for LA's top-ranked defense in the Divisional Round, but keep a close eye on his status throughout the week. His X-rays came back negative.
