Aaron Donald Returns as Rams Host Giants on Monday Night

Donald is active on a capped snap plan that alters the Rams' pass-rush profile and shifts betting markets.

Overview

  • The game will kick off at 8:15 p.m. ET Monday at SoFi Stadium and will be simulcast on ESPN and ABC.
  • Oddsmakers opened Los Angeles as roughly a 6.5–7-point favorite with the total near 47.5–48 and the Rams favored on the money line.
  • Aaron Donald is expected to play on a managed snap count (roughly 30–40 snaps) while Myles Garrett was placed on injured reserve after knee surgery.
  • Rams receiver availability is uncertain, with Puka Nacua listed questionable (hip) and Jordan Whittington listed doubtful (quad), creating questions for Los Angeles' passing attack.
  • Models and experts lean to the Over on the total, but SportsLine's Machine Learning AI projects Matthew Stafford to finish under his 238.5-yard line at about 215.6 passing yards.
