Overview
- The footage obtained by TMZ and reported by several outlets showed Donald on the Rams’ Woodland Hills practice field on Friday doing ladder drills, medicine-ball work and agility exercises in a roughly one-hour session.
- An eyewitness said Donald looked “clearly gassed” after the workout, a detail that reporters used to note the difference between gym training and football-specific work on grass.
- Donald has publicly said he is “flirting with the idea” of returning, and the Rams’ June 1 trade for Myles Garrett is widely cited as the main catalyst for renewed interest in a comeback.
- Coach Sean McVay has discussed the opportunity with Donald and Garrett has expressed excitement about the possibility, but the team has not announced any contract, roster or snap-allocation plan.
- Major practical questions remain about Donald’s readiness at age 35 after two seasons out, injury risk, a defined low-usage snap plan, and how a signing would fit under the salary-cap before training camp.
