What happened: Rams coach Sean McVay said he won't put an "invisible deadline" on Aaron Donald to end his retirement, but added that he hopes the former star defensive tackle makes a decision "sooner than later."
Why it matters: The Rams are 1-0 this preseason after beating the Chiefs 20-12, meaning McVay's roster is already producing results without Donald in the lineup. A decision either way shapes how the Rams build out their defensive front the rest of the preseason.
By the numbers: Rams: 1-0, scoring 20.0 points per game, allowing 12.0. Biggest result: 20-12 at the Chiefs.
What to watch: Watch for McVay's next update on Donald's status as the Rams continue preseason play.
