There were a lot of critics and fans who felt that Pittsburgh Steelers’ TJ Watt deserved to win the award after a breakout year. Even sibling, JJ Watt of the Houston Texans, took to Twitter with a post highlighting why his brother was essentially ‘robbed’ of the DPOY title.

But Donald could not be bothered by all this noise. The 7-time Pro Bowler has just one goal on his mind right now, a Lombardi.

Speaking to the Los Angeles Rams media team, Donald spoke about his desire to build a legacy with his current organization. No great NFL story can ever be complete without a Super Bowl title, something that Donald wants to win in the coming years with the Rams.

He said, “It’s a blessing. I always say the same stuff, you know — anytime you’re rewarded for the body of work you put in and people notice that you’ll be happy about that. You’re accomplishing great things building to a legacy, but never satisfied.”

That’s what we’re chasing, that’s what I’m chasing, that’s what I want to accomplish. And I until I accomplish that, I ain’t going to be satisfied,” Donald said via the team’s official website.

The Rams made a bold move in the offseason to trade Jared Goff for Detroit Lions QB Matthew Stafford. He could be the missing piece of HC Sean McVay’s puzzle in Los Angeles.

Add Stafford’s tenacity to the defensive prowess of Aaron Donald and Jalen Ramsey and the Rams should be favorites to make the Super Bowl in 2021. Maybe AD will get to fulfill his dream after all.
