Aaron Donald Officially Works Out With Rams but Is Not Signed

The helmeted session signals an active comeback evaluation with medical clearance and a renegotiated contract still required.

Overview

  • The workout was logged on the NFL transaction wire after Donald used Rams equipment and wanted to train in a football helmet, signaling a formal step in his assessment.
  • The team-listed session does not equal a signing because Donald must pass medical and conditioning checks and the Rams must resolve roughly $30–31 million in remaining contract obligations.
  • Rams coach Sean McVay and executives have described the process as “trending upwards,” noting Donald is ramping up football-specific work but has not committed to a return.
  • If he signs, most reporting expects a limited, specialist snap role that would pair Donald with newly acquired Myles Garrett and materially strengthen Los Angeles’s pass rush and title outlook.
  • Donald is also advancing media and business plans, including new management at Envisionary and a docuseries, giving him a clear off-field path whether or not he returns.
