Los Angeles Rams DT Aaron Donald is one of the toughest defensive players and a nightmare for QBs in the NFL. But now with Sunday’s NFC Championship game, Donald has an opportunity to add another golden achievement. He is one of the most important players in the Rams franchise and a vital cog in their well-oiled franchise. A player of his caliber has a résumé, which will be hard for anyone to replicate in the future.
He is entering his prime, having spent eight seasons with the Rams taking down quarterbacks and their offensive lines. A 3-time Defensive Player of the Year, he was also the Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2014. He also holds the distinction of making the NFL’s 2010s All-Decade Team and the NFL All-Pro team 7 times. But despite all his achievements, only one thing really eludes him and that is a Super Bowl victory.
