Aaron Donald expects to be 'a lot more fresh' with reduced workload
Aaron Donald won't play his usual workload, but he expects to be fresh throughout Monday's game in his debut.
The Los Angeles Rams are preparing to welcome Aaron Donald this week as he prepares to make his debut against the New York Giants on Monday night. This will be Donald's first game in over two years, and it is evident that his workload will be significantly reduced compared to his previous performances. It is expected that Donald will primarily be utilized for passing downs, with his numbers likely averaging around 30-40% of all defensive snaps per game.
Donald himself believes that less playing time will equate to more freshness, stating, "I'll probably be a lot more fresh." He goes on to explain that due to the long season ahead, he plans to continually rotate in and out to maintain his health throughout the year. "I think we have a good game plan to get myself going and get this team going," Donald asserts, adding, "Whatever that role is, I'm ready for it. I'm excited about it and I'm just going to do it."
With Myles Garrett sidelined for the next four games due to injury, the Rams are counting on the talent of players such as Kobie Turner, Poona Ford, and Braden Fiske to fill the void left by Donald's reduced workload.
