What happened: Aaron Donald has completed his second official workout with the Los Angeles Rams, according to NFL insider Adam Schefter via the league's transaction wire. Schefter reported the development Sunday, the latest sign that Donald is weighing a return to the franchise where he built his Hall of Fame career.

Why it matters: The Rams have already added Myles Garrett to a defensive line that includes Kobie Turner and Poona Ford, and adding Donald could reshape the unit's ceiling. Los Angeles opens the regular season against the San Francisco 49ers on September 10 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, leaving 25 days for a decision.

By the numbers: Donald retired after the 2023 season with 111 career sacks and eight first-team All-Pro selections.

What to watch: Head coach Sean McVay has said he won't set an "invisible deadline" on Donald but hopes for a decision "sooner than later."
