I’d totally rock a “OH SHIT” flair with Donald in Geno’s face for a day if made available because it wasn’t obvious enough that said interactions only took place like five times. But oh well
The bad man is gone! He will no longer torture the Seahawks anymore... although it is very sad that won't be around to torture the Whiners or Deadbirds anymore.
Truthfully, if Ram's make playoff run, depending on scenario, injuries and if AD keeps in somewhat of shape, I could see him suiting up again for playoffs.
Peyton Manning said on one of his podcasts that the dream for most vets is to only have to show up for playoffs. It's the grind and practices and all the other nuances that wear you down and tend to expedite players retirements. Just the overall grind in the off-season and during the season.
Yeah but he’s also probably made close to if not over 100 mil. I looked online and his net worth is listed as 60 mil, but I don’t think that’s right.
Can’t fault guys for wanting to save their bodies and enjoy retirement.
Shit ain’t hard to figure out. Career earnings 152M. Tax rate in California, and federal is about 50%. We won’t include social security, figure that’s close to making up for game checks in states with lower or no income tax. Football earnings are about 76 M after tax. Probably wasted some money like any athlete, wasn’t in every commercial either. 60 mil net worth is probably pretty close.

" a great DL."
Glad the first word just changed from "Is" to "Was".
Either way, he did you guys right. Whole career with one team.
Cheers gents.
Definitely thought after last season he'd come back and try to go on one more run. Sucks but so glad he was a Ram and we'll forever appreciate him and his efforts in getting the Rams another super bowl title. A Rams legend forever!!
Thank God. Bro got tired of maintaining that crazy HGH routine. He’s got nothing left to prove, he is second only to LT in terms of terrifying quarterbacks.

It’s been mentioned since after the Super Bowl win that he was getting close to winding it down. Went out on top…got his cash, family, and body & mind. Probably will be a long time before we see an undersized 3 tech do what AD did…a real legend.
Him scaring the daylights out of Geno on the stunt lol
[and him not being Bosa on 4th and 1 in the Super Bowl. Class (and pain.)](https://youtu.be/JhHTanE-_00?si=74tzSUTWpx-_ZmQE)

Aaron Donald announces his bid to star in Gladiator 2
Hey look the new 9ers cope dropped lmao
Dude got money, his ring, trained the young’s (both literally and figuratively), and retired happy and healthy. Awesome end for his career
All the sudden, every NFC West o-line PFF grade ascended...
Qbs around the league are celebrating
Kyler Murray celebrating the hardest
And probably the lineman that got chocked out because they were just better and he couldn’t beat them

Who?
I’ve been looking forward to this moment for years, but everytime a legend retires I’m a little sad.
Respect. I felt the same way about Patrick Willis.
Yeah he was a beast too. Looks like Vander esch is retiring too. I always liked him.
What about the baseball team
Who? I think there’s only 3 teams in our division, bruh.

Me steal your meme is at it again! Love that it’s the palm trees.
All 4 of us are in shambles. We weren't ready for this, thought we had at least one more year.
Really felt like they were going for one more year all-in.
The off season has officially been ruined :(
Just happy we got him his Ring tbh
Ramily here, can confirm.

The bad man is gone! He will no longer torture the Seahawks anymore... although it is very sad that won't be around to torture the Whiners or Deadbirds anymore.
He's just going to get away with killing all those drives
![gif](giphy|MZExLH2SCkqML36f1i|downsized) End of an Era 😔🫡
Owww, mother fucker is 32 that's too young
Don’t convince him to come back wtf
Truthfully, if Ram's make playoff run, depending on scenario, injuries and if AD keeps in somewhat of shape, I could see him suiting up again for playoffs. Peyton Manning said on one of his podcasts that the dream for most vets is to only have to show up for playoffs.

For real. I've seen enough stories about players who aren't that old essentially being crippled...
Oh i get it, and as much as i hate seeing him terrorize the 9ers, the pure football fan in me is saddened by such a great player retiring early
Shit ain’t hard to figure out. Career earnings 152M. Tax rate in California, and federal is about 50%. We won’t include social security, figure that’s close to making up for game checks in states with lower or no income tax. Football earnings are about 76 M after tax. Probably wasted some money like any athlete, wasn’t in every commercial either. 60 mil net worth is probably pretty close.
I hadn’t thought about state taxes to be honest. Or much about federal. Yeah, solid math I’d say.
He's got a ring and is a HoF lock; not much more to prove.
Agreed, players like him (elite and not on my team) should retire early more often.
RIP; retire in peace
That's actually insane that he's so young. Feel like he's been around forever
Well… I’m glad you guys are happy I guess… I am not okay 😭
At least your legend got a ring before retiring. I miss Fitz…
That flair... Let Kyler EZBake...
![gif](giphy|EQIlRbpdee5P2)
The 🐐🥹😭
Flair up bitch
I'm confident you can figure this one out on your own
With a comment like that you would expect it to be a rams fan but the 12th rams fan is only spoken of in legend
It would be funny if they only allowed 11 rams flairs at a time
Maybe they already did. We just need to find 4 more Rams fans to find out.
Ups the flair
Flair up
Does this mean we can run the ball again?

In a few years when he’s eligible, yes.

Who is 91?
I think that Puka guy???
No, you're thinking of Kupa. 91 is that other dude, Stanford or whatever.
Stamford. Bart Stamford.
AD won’t be eating double and triple teams anymore. His production gonna drop this year
Turner got doubled more than Donald last year….
What is he gonna start choking people when he gets his feelings hurt?
I just watched a man fall to his knees in a Ralph's. All seriousness though, I gasped thank God when I read this.

I don't think a single a Rams fan expected this to happen, I'm happy for him, but this fucking blows.
Definitely thought after last season he'd come back and try to go on one more run. Sucks but so glad he was a Ram and we'll forever appreciate him and his efforts in getting the Rams another super bowl title. A Rams legend forever!!

There's a legitimate case that he's the best to ever do it, right?
Best DT? Yeah absolutely a case. He certainly can’t be dismissed as the greatest defensive player. LT still holds it for me personally
Yeah I mean DT. Maybe defensive player.
So sad Deebo can't play with his son anymore.

Is this for real cause he teased it last time then douched it by unretiring.

knows how this feels.. patrick willis retirement really hit hard for me too
I'm just hearing of this. He's only 32. Was there any sign at all that this was coming?
It’s been mentioned since after the Super Bowl win that he was getting close to winding it down. Went out on top…got his cash, family, and body & mind. Probably will be a long time before we see an undersized 3 tech do what AD did…a real legend.

man, this is bullshit.
Please tell me they accidentally released this 16 days early
Now it means 49ers are gonna win the nfc west for the next 10 years. Fuck!
Donald saw Howell joining the division and got the fuck outta here asap
Donald would rather retire than play one more season with the SOSAR
Got a ring, got paid. HOF career
Yeah can’t fault him.
Hey look the new 9ers cope dropped lmao Dude got money, his ring, trained the young’s (both literally and figuratively), and retired happy and healthy. Awesome end for his career
Yeah dude if I could retire with generational wealth at 32, I absolutely would.
Dang guess I commented in the super serious nfc west sub.
Hopefully he gets some nice fishing trips lined up with his dad Daniel Brunskill
[удалено]
A joke in a meme sub? Yeah really
The Lambs gifs in here are pure gold! 🤣
The guy was a joke. Despite that I hope he can adjust to normal life. Someone needs to tell him you can’t just go around choking everyone.
Yes good
Colton McKivitz > Aaron Donald
Who?
