Aaron Donald said he was willing to retire if he didn’t receive a new contract from the Los Angeles Rams. The team obliged Monday with a reworked deal that will give the three-time AP Defensive Player of the Year a massive raise to keep playing.
Donald, 31, will get a fully guaranteed $65 million for the next two seasons and has an option to retire in 2024 or return for an additional $30 million guaranteed, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. The $95 million due to Donald over the next three seasons puts him ahead of Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill for the title of highest paid non-quarterback in the NFL.
While the Rams didn’t release the financial particulars of the deal, the team did confirm the news Monday that Donald will be back for the 2022 season.
