Sean McVay talks about the Rams’ defensive tackle Aaron Donald

In that interview, Sandoval told McVay about their defensive coordinator’s ‘Boogeyman’ comment on Donald. Agreeing with him, the young Rams coach said, There’s no doubt about it. I mean he affects the game in so many different ways, where the attention and you got to know where he is all the times and he does enable guys to be able to get one-on-ones that in a lot of instances they would not get otherwise.

“When he’s one-on-one, he’s about as automatic as it gets. So, I don’t think it’s by coincidence that guys that play around Aaron Donald usually play at their best because that’s what the greatest players do. They make others around them better and certainly, Aaron’s done that for a long time,” McVay further said.
