What happened: BMac_SportsTalk predicted Aaron Donald will dominate and called his pairing with Myles Garrett one of the best pass-rushing duos ever. Donald ended a 2½-year retirement to rejoin the Los Angeles Rams on a one-year contract.
Why it matters: The pairing puts two multiple-time Defensive Player of the Year winners on the same front. Donald’s interior pressure and Garrett’s work off the edge could complicate protection plans throughout the 2026 season.
By the numbers: Donald and Garrett have won five combined Defensive Player of the Year awards: three for Donald and two for Garrett.
What to watch: Donald is eligible for the Sept. 10 opener, when his workload and alignment alongside Garrett will come into focus.
