Aaron Donald returns to the Rams roster before Week 3 Broncos game
Summary

Aaron Donald has ended his retirement after two seasons to rejoin the Los Angeles Rams. The defensive lineman enters a roster already featuring Myles Garrett, who arrived via an offseason trade. This addition complicates the Week 3 Sunday Night Football matchup for the Denver Broncos, who host the Rams in Denver. Former Broncos tight end Shannon Sharpe suggests that the Denver offense must prioritize the run game to limit the defensive pressure from Donald and Garrett. Donald has recorded sacks in both of his previous career games against the Broncos. The team last met in December 2022, a game the Rams won 51-14.
