News

  • Rehab progressing ahead of Year 10

    Donald (ankle) shared a video Tuesday featuring himself working out and reiterated that he intends to play during the 2023 season, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.

    Analysis: Donald missed the last six games of the 2022 campaign due to an ankle injury, but the video he released Tuesday indicates that the star defensive tackle remains in good health. It's unclear whether Donald will be ready for the start of offseason workouts or will require more time to rehab, but the 31-year-old has confirmed that he will suit up in 2023, which will be his 10th season in the NFL.

  • Ruled out for season finale

    Donald (ankle) has been officially ruled out for the Rams' season finale Sunday versus the Seahawks, Greg Beacham of The Associated Press reports.

    Analysis: As expected, Donald will not appear in the Rams' last game of the year and will head into the offseason having sat out the final six games of the campaign. The defensive tackle flirted with retirement following the team's Super Bowl victory in February and will certainly weigh his options again following a disappointing campaign for Los Angeles in 2022. Donald will officially finish his ninth season in the league with 49 tackles, five sacks, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery over 11…read more

  • Likely done for season

    Rams head coach Sean McVay said Donald (ankle) won't play Sunday against the Broncos and is unlikely to suit up again this season, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Though McVay said Donald is "making good progress" in his recovery from a high-ankle sprain, the star defensive lineman has yet to resume practicing since suffering the injury Week 12 and will miss his fourth consecutive game Christmas Day. Given that the 4-10 Rams are eliminated from playoff contention, there's little incentive to expose Donald to further injury over the final three weeks of the season, so expect the 31-year-old to turn his sights toward returning at 100 percent health for…read more

  • Sits out walk-through session

    Donald (ankle) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Donald missed his third consecutive game in Monday's loss to the Packers and may not be on track to make it back for this Sunday's matchup with the Broncos. With the Rams eliminated from playoff contention, they will presumably err on the side of caution with their star defensive lineman until the sprained ankle is firmly behind him.

  • Out against Packers

    Donald (ankle) won't play in Monday's matchup against the Packers, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.

    Analysis: Though the Rams are non-contenders at this point in the season, head coach Sean McVay has said that Donald won't be shut down. However, the Rams will err on the side of of caution with their star defensive lineman if his health is not up to par. As a result, he'll miss his third straight game due to the high-ankle sprain.

  • Sitting out to begin Week 15 prep

    Rams head coach Sean McVay said Donald (ankle) won't practice Thursday, Greg Beacham of The Associated Press reports.

    Analysis: Earlier in the week, McVay disclosed that Donald hasn't been shut down for the season, despite the 4-9 Rams' status as a non-contender. That being said, the fact that Donald still isn't practicing after missing his second straight game in last Thursday's win over the Raiders, suggests he's not trending in the right direction for the Rams' Week 15 game against the Packers on Monday. Michael Hoecht has handled snap shares north of 80 percent while Donald has been sidelined the past two games,…read more

  • Hopeful to return in two weeks

    Donald (ankle), who has been ruled out in advance of Sunday's game against the Seahawks, is hopeful to return to the lineup in two weeks, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: After suffering a mild high-ankle sprain in the Rams' Week 12 loss to the Chiefs, Donald is set to miss his first game for injury-related reasons during his nine-year career (he previously sat out the first two games of the 2017 season due to a contract dispute). According to the report, Donald's injured ankle is currently immobilized, but the arrangement should promote healing and allow the star defensive tackle to make it back before the end of the season. The Rams will face a quick…read more

  • Out this week, avoids surgery

    Donald (ankle) won't play Sunday against the Seahawks but isn't expected to require surgery and will be considered week-to-week, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Analysis: The Rams have gone from adding insult to injury back to adding more and more injuries. There's not much left of last year's Super Bowl championship roster, at least in terms of the top players, as the team heads into December with no realistic shot at a postseason appearance. Donald has only been ruled out for one week so far with the high-ankle sprain, but there's not much reason for the Rams to rush him back as the month progresses. The star defensive lineman's upcoming absence Week 13 will…read more

  • Could have high-ankle sprain

    Rams coach Sean McVay said that Donald is undergoing evaluation for a potential high-ankle sprain, Ian Rapaport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Donald picked up this potentially significant injury at some point during Sunday's 26-10 loss to the Chiefs, according to Jordan Rodrigue of The Athletic. While the severity of the issue has yet to be revealed, the 31-year-old likely would need to sit out 4-to-6 weeks if it's confirmed as a high-ankle sprain. Donald has tallied double-digit sacks in each of the last five seasons and has 27 tackles, including five sacks, over 11 games in 2022, so his potential absence would be a devastating loss…read more

  • Dealing with injury

    Rams coach Sean McVay said that Donald picked up an ankle sprain during Sunday's 26-10 loss to the Chiefs and is undergoing further testing Monday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Donald recorded three tackles while playing 79 percent of the Rams' defensive snaps versus Kansas City, though it's unclear when or how this injury first arose during the contest. McVay also emphasized that he did not have a definitive update on the defensive lineman's health, per Rodrigue, so the exact severity of this issue should come into focus following Monday's examinations. It also will be worth monitoring Donald's status on the Rams' first injury report of Week 12 this Wednesday.

  • Season-high seven stops

    Donald recorded seven tackles (four solo) including one tackle for loss during Sunday's 31-14 loss to the 49ers.

    Analysis: Donald played every defensive snap for the first time this season, as the Rams' struggled to slow down San Francisco's offense in the second half. After recording at least 12.5 sacks in each of the past four seasons, the star defensive end has logged just four sacks over the first seven contests of 2022. However, Donald could stand to terrorize Tampa Bay's depleted offensive line this coming Sunday.

  • Active as expected Week 6

    Donald (foot) is active for Sunday's Week 6 clash against the Panthers, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The star tackle sat out the first two practices of the week but bounced back to full participation in Friday's session, which led to optimism regarding his availability. With Donald's active status now confirmed, he's set to take aim at an inconsistent Panthers offense that will be helmed by the mistake-prone P.J. Walker in place of Baker Mayfield (ankle).

  • Receives Week 6 injury tag

    Rams head coach Sean McVay said Donald (foot) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers, but the defensive tackle is expected to play, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Even though Donald has missed the Rams' first two practices of the week due to the foot injury, the team apparently isn't too concerned that the star lineman will have to miss his first regular-season games since 2017, when he was rested for a meaningless Week 17 game. While Donald is unlikely to take part in Friday's practice as a full participant, he'll presumably be in line for his usual 80-plus-percent snap share if he avoids landing on the inactive list prior to Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET…read more

    Donald (foot) did not participate during the Rams' practice Thursday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Donald did not practice for the second day in a row after unexpectedly popping up with a foot issue Wednesday. His lack of participation is not surprising, however, as Rams coach Sean McVay said that the team would carefully handle the star defensive lineman in practice, but he should still be available for Sunday's game against the Panthers. It's likely that Donald will continue to remain out or limited in practice this week, so his game status on Friday's final injury report could provide…read more

    Donald was listed as a non-participant at Wednesday's practice due to a foot injury.

    Analysis: Donald is tending to the injury following his two-sack performance in a loss to the Cowboys on Sunday, though it's unclear exactly when the foot issue surfaced. According to Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times, Rams head coach Sean McVay said that the team would "be smart" with the star defensive tackle during practice this week, but the injury isn't expected to affect Donald's status for this Sunday's matchup with Carolina.

  • Notches two sacks

    Donald registered six tackles (two solo), two sacks and a forced fumble in Sunday's 22-10 loss to the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Donald managed to double his sack total on the season, including a strip sack of Cooper Rush in the first quarter that led to a fumble recovered by Dallas. Rush got sacked by Donald again in the second quarter, cementing the best performance of the season so far for the star defensive tackle. The struggling Panthers come to town in Week 6, and with starting quarterback Baker Mayfield (ankle) likely out, Donald could be in line for another strong performance.

  • Reaches milestone in win

    Donald recorded six tackles (four solo), including a sack, in Sunday's 20-12 win versus the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Donald became the fastest at his position of defensive tackle to record 100 sacks with his takedown of Kyler Murray in the first quarter. In just 130 games, the linchpin of the Rams defense already sits in a tie for 39th on the list of all-time sack leaders, and he shows no signs of slowing down. A Week 4 tilt with a San Francisco squad that's already surrendered seven sacks on the season should provide more opportunities for Donald to add to his lofty totals.

  • Records sack in loss

    Donald registered two solo tackles and one sack in Thursday's 31-10 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: Donald played 51 of the team's 59 defensive snaps, but outside of his lone sack, which set the Bills' offense back just one yard, he failed to make a major statistical impact. The defensive tackle is one of the greatest defensive players of all time and will look to get back on track against the Falcons in Week 2.

  • Agrees to contract restructure

    The Rams and Donald have agreed to a restructured deal that is in line to make him the highest-paid non-QB in league history, Nick Shook of NFL.com reports.

    Analysis: Per the report, while no new years were added to the star defensive lineman's contract, the agreement guarantees Donald $65 million over the next two seasons and $95 million through the 2024 campaign. The 31-year-old is coming off a 2021 season in which he recorded 12.5 sacks and a career-high 84 tackles in 17 games. Now that he's come to terms with the Rams, the 2014 first-rounder remains entrenched as a key pillar up front on defense for the franchise.

    Donald is expected to be present at mandatory minicamp early next week, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.

    Analysis: Donald has been floating the idea of retirement all offseason after the Rams won Super Bowl 56 in February, but head coach Sean McVay is planning on the star defensive tackle being back at mandatory minicamp next week. The 31-year-old posted 12.5 sacks while notching a career-high 84 tackles last season, also adding four forced fumbles and four pass deflections over 17 games.

  • Lives in backfield

    Donald recorded five tackles, three tackles for a loss, one sack and one forced fumble in Sunday's 30-23 win over Minnesota.

    Analysis: Donald disrupted Minnesota's offense throughout the game. He stopped Alexander Mattison and Kene Nwangwu in the backfield on a combined three plays for a total of -7 yards. Donald also made life difficult for Kirk Cousins, sacking him and also causing a fumble late in the fourth quarter to stall a key drive. Donald has now recorded exactly five tackles in each of his last four games, but he's also recorded six sacks and forced two fumbles in that span.

  • Full practice, ready for Tuesday

    Donald (knee) was listed as full on Sunday's injury report, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Donald kicked off Week 15 prep with DNP next to his name Wednesday, but he bumped up to limited Thursday through Saturday. Now with a full session behind him, he's good to go for Tuesday's rescheduled game versus the Seahawks. Indeed, Donald told Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com earlier Sunday that he's dealing with "normal aches and pains," but he's "refreshed" heading into the stretch run of the season.

  • Estimated as limited

    Donald (knee) was estimated as a limited practice participant Thursday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Analysis: The Rams held virtual meetings due to the large number of players being forced to the reserve/COVID-19 list and did not have any on-field activity, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports. Even so, Donald's estimated limited participation was a step forward from his non-participation Wednesday. Donald has regularly gotten maintenance days late in the season to manage the injury, and he is likely to suit up Sunday against Seattle unless a setback occurs.

  • Listed on injury report

    Donald (knee) is listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's injury report, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The Rams didn't actually practice Wednesday, so Donald's lack of participation is merely an estimate. The team could simply be taking a cautious approach to the star defensive tackle's health, and he will have two more chances to log activity ahead of Sunday's divisional matchup against Seattle.

    Donald tallied five tackles -- including three sacks -- and was credited with a pass breakup in Monday's 30-23 win over the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Donald has now reached double-digit sacks for the fifth consecutive season, with his first takedown of quarterback Kyler Murray coming on the first play from scrimmage, and his third sack of the night coming on the game's final snap. His pass breakup also came at a critical time, with Donald's deflection of a Murray pass at the goal line falling into the waiting hands of linebacker Ernest Jones for an interception.

    Donald (knee) was limited in Thursday's practice, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Donald did not participate in Wednesday's practice due to a knee issue that he picked up in Week 5. However, his return to practice in limited fashion Thursday suggests that he will be fine for the team's matchup against the Giants on Sunday. Unsurprisingly, Donald has been a key force for the Rams' defense, racking up 24 tackles, three sacks and a forced fumble through five contests.

    Donald didn't participate at Wednesday's practice due to a knee injury and is considered day-to-day, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Donald is apparently dealing with some swelling after banging his knee during last Thursday's win over the Seahawks, though he still ended up playing 93 percent of the defensive snaps. It's not believed to be a serious issue, and the 30-year-old is expected to be ready to go for Sunday's game against the Giants.

    Analysis: As he typically does, Donald came up big in a big game. The 30-year-old defensive tackle can't be stopped, and he has registered 13 tackles (six solo) and two sacks through three games. He's a strong option in any IDP league that utilizes a DL spot.

  • Turns in another dominant year

    Donald finished the 2020 regular season with 45 tackles (27 solo), 13.5 sacks, four forced fumbles and a fumble recovery in 16 games.

    Analysis: The All-Pro defensive tackle came through with another banner year, with his efforts playing a major part in the Los Angeles defense allowing the fewest yards and points per game in the league. There's no reason to expect Donald's fantasy production to slip in 2021, and he should be considered one of the best options at his position again next draft season.

    Donald (ribs) doesn't have an injury designation for Saturday's game in Green Bay, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Analysis: Once X-rays came back negative, there was never much doubt Donald would play. He said Wednesday that he doesn't have any pain, and while that might not technically be true, he'll likely aim for his usual three-down role Saturday afternoon in Green Bay. The superstar pass rusher had two sacks and three QB hits last week against Seattle, despite the rib injury limiting him to season-low 47 percent snap share.

The All-Pro defensive lineman is officially considered day-to-day, and head coach Sean McVay said Sunday that he's expected to play in the NFC divisional round against the Packers, per Stu Jackson of the team's official site. Nevertheless, it's worth monitoring as the week progresses because the Rams' defense loses its identity without Donald in the fold.

    Analysis: While Donald's reps in practice could be capped this week, his coach said the rib injury Donald suffered in Saturday's win over Seattle won't affect the star defensive lineman's availability for the divisional round. Donald is the lifeblood of the stingy Rams defense, as he posted 13.5 sacks in the regular season and another two in the wild-card round.

  • Unlikely to return Saturday

    Donald was forced out of Saturday's wild-card game against the Seahawks with a rib injury, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Donald is considered doubtful to return after leaving in the third quarter. Prior to his exit, Donald was dominant as usual, putting up two sacks and three quarterback hits. He hasn't missed a game since the 2017 season. The Rams should provide a more detailed update on Donald's injury following Saturday's game. The perennial All Pro posted 45 tackles, 13.5 sacks and four forced fumbles during the regular season.

    Analysis: Donald brought down Nick Mullens for his league-leading 10th sack of the 2020 season, but the Rams would fall 23-20.

  • Dominates Washington

    Donald recorded four solo tackles, four sacks and forced a fumble during Sunday's 30-10 win over Washington. He was also credited with three tackles for a loss and three quarterback hits.

    Analysis: The All-Pro is now up to 17 tackles (10 solo) and 7.5 sacks for the campaign after overpowering Washington's offensive line Sunday. Expect a couple modest showings from Donald over the course of the season because opposing teams game plan against him every week, but he remains one of the elite options at his position. Sunday's dominant showing served as another reminder of his fantasy upside.

  • Disruptive in loss

    Donald recorded six tackles (five solo), two sacks, three quarterback hits and forced a fumble he then recovered during Sunday's 35-32 loss to Buffalo.

    Analysis: After being held in check by Philadelphia last week, Donald had his best game of the short season Sunday, as the Bills struggled to contain the five-time All Pro.

  • Turns in another dominant season

    Donald finished the 2019 campaign with 48 tackles (29 solo) and 12.5 sacks.

    Analysis: Repeating his 20.5 sacks from the 2018 campaign was unlikely, so while Donald did drop significantly to just 12.5 this season, that mark still ranked seventh in the NFL. Additionally, the attention opposing offenses paid to slowing down Donald allowed teammate Dante Fowler Jr. to record 11.5 sacks of his own. Duplicating his 2019 numbers would line Donald up for another excellent fantasy season, but it's not out of the question to expect him to end up somewhere in the middle of his production…read more
