Just a bit over a week back, the football world got hit with a bombshell: Aaron Donald hung up his cleats after a solid decade in the NFL. Ten seasons of pure dominance, and now he's stepping away, leaving a legacy that's up there with the greatest of all time. Dude won't come out and say he's the G.O.A.T., but let's be real, he's right up there with the best defenders ever.
To show some major love for the future Hall of Famer, the Rams pulled off a slick move. They snagged a full-page spot in the Los Angeles Times last Sunday, decked out with a killer quote: “Legends live forever.” And, of course, they slapped a photo of the man himself, Donald. Talk about a classy send-off for one of the gridiron's all-time greats. It's like they're saying, "Yo, thanks for the memories, Aaron. You're a legend, bro."
Check out this tweet from Martin Rickman. He's laying down the stats: Aaron Donald racked up a whopping 111 career sacks, more than anyone else in Rams history. That's some serious quarterback hunting right there. And get this, the guy's a lock for the Hall of Fame. First ballot, no doubt, in 2029. He's right up there with legends like Jack Youngblood and Merlin Olsen. Man, talk about leaving a mark on the game. Aaron's got his name etched in Rams history books for sure.
