Aaron Donald Reaffirms Retirement Ahead of Rams’ Sunday Night Tribute

Donald says he feels fulfilled in retirement and has moved on from playing.

Overview

  • Donald told reporters he does not miss playing and has never felt an itch to return since retiring in March 2024.
  • He said he entered 2023 training camp knowing it would be his final season, a plan he shared only with family and a few coaches.
  • The Rams will honor Donald during Sunday Night Football against the Buccaneers at SoFi Stadium, including a fan giveaway tied to his Super Bowl moment.
  • Donald described missing the locker-room camaraderie rather than the on-field competition and said he now enjoys watching the Rams with his family.
  • Public chatter about a comeback continues given his age and the Rams’ strong start, but Donald’s stance is firm and Sean McVay previously called it disrespectful to ask him to return.
