Overview
- Donald completed a second official, team‑logged workout at the Rams’ facility on Monday that was reported on the NFL transaction wire.
- Insiders and NFL Network reporting say he has not made a final decision about unretiring, though some sources describe the situation as “trending” toward a return.
- The recent sessions were run by defensive line coach Giff Smith and included Rams strength staff and Donald’s trainer DeWayne Brown to test contact tolerance and conditioning.
- Coach Sean McVay says the team is operating on Donald’s timeline and will not impose a deadline, though NFL paperwork sets a practical reinstatement cutoff around Week 13.
- Any comeback requires the Rams and Donald to resolve roughly $30–31 million in contract and salary‑cap mechanics and would likely start with a limited snap role alongside new addition Myles Garrett.
