Aaron Donald Return Decision Remains Unresolved
Adam Schefter's training camp preview piece for all 32 NFL teams highlights the Aaron Donald situation as one of the more compelling storylines heading into 2026, and the latest read is that a decision does not appear to be close.
Donald, 35, retired in March 2024 after 10 seasons with the Rams. He finished with 111 sacks, eight first-team All-Pro selections, and three Defensive Player of the Year awards (2017, 2018, 2020). His last game action came on January 14, 2024, in a playoff loss to the Detroit Lions.
