Aaron Donald is anticipated to make a full return to the Los Angeles Rams this season, according to Pat McAfee. McAfee insists that if Donald comes back, it would not be as a part-time player. Amid speculation about Donald's potential return, he has indicated a desire to play a significant role rather than being limited to specific situations.
