Overview
- The July 11 video obtained by TMZ showed 35-year-old Aaron Donald doing about an hour of ladder drills, medicine‑ball work and agility reps on the Rams’ practice field.
- Myles Garrett posted a framed, autographed Aaron Donald Rams jersey on social media days later, which fans and commentators treated as a recruitment signal.
- ESPN insider Jeremy Fowler said Donald has worked out at the Rams facility 'off and on' since retiring and has not made a firm decision to return.
- Fowler also reported the Rams had not made a formal contract offer as of his check, though team officials are described as receptive and talks could be arranged quickly.
- If Donald signs, analysts say pairing him with Garrett would sharply strengthen the Rams’ pass rush and change title projections, but health, snap usage and cap mechanics are key hurdles to resolve.
