Aaron Donald has completed his second official workout with the Los Angeles Rams, according to NFL insider Adam Schefter. The workout occurred as Donald weighs a potential return to the team before their regular season opener against the San Francisco 49ers on September 10 in Melbourne, Australia. This comes after a first workout earlier this month, which required the Rams to report his participation due to team equipment use. Head coach Sean McVay emphasized he does not want to impose a deadline on Donald’s decision but hopes it will come soon. Donald retired after the 2023 season, leaving the possibility of his return to significantly bolster the Rams' defense, which already features Myles Garrett.
