Overview
- Rams general manager Les Snead said Tuesday that Donald has a “real itch” to come back and is thinking about the idea in a serious way.
- Coach Sean McVay confirmed ongoing contact and said Donald’s training has been going very well while stressing there is no imminent decision.
- If Donald un‑retires the Rams still hold his rights and the team faces roughly $30–31 million tied to his existing contract that must be renegotiated or worked through for cap reasons.
- The club must also complete medical and conditioning checks and agree on a limited, rotational role with incentive‑heavy terms before any signing would be possible.
- Donald retired in March 2024 after a Hall of Fame‑caliber 10‑year career and the prospect of pairing him with Myles Garrett has raised the Rams’ defensive ceiling and reshaped short‑term roster and payroll questions.
