No one deserves to enjoy retirement more
Great episode
Love AD!!! So happy we had him for 10 years. Great interview!
Great interview with AD!!! Ad and your Chris are great, your stories together have been incredible to hear. I have enjoyed you with my Rams, I thank you immensely. A big greeting from Argetina, Sergio.
Great show with two amazing Rams , need do more with ex Rams teammates. 🐏
Sad to not be able to see again AD with Rams jersey on the field but so proud watching him with my team for all his time in NFL.
French love Rams for life
One of the Greatest defensive players to ever do it!!! The shid player talk abt when talking abt him is like LT!
Good interview.
Look. AD is BURNT OUT!!!! I hope he relaxes and by week 4 has the inch to comeback. Let us start off 8-0! I pray he comes if that happens!! I understand. We are all burnt out. I’m 34! Burnt out !!!
That's what we want love with teammate, I love see how well that's was between old Rams.
As a life long Rams fan what an honnor to watch 99 dominate for 10 years. Best of his generation and the most consistent. Hearing him talk about how he doesn't want to go through another training camp gives me hope he will be back for the season 😅
👍
For as long as he's been in the league, I've never actually heard this dude talk. It's crazy, because any time a Rams game was on, Aaron Donald is the ONE guy that I'd keep my eyes on when the defense was on the field.
He sounds happy as hell, and I hope he stays that way. Thanks for everything AD, you'll be the guy that we will be telling the kids about.
Been waiting for this!
Makes me wanna cry… two of my fav, just need to add Robert Quinn
Tired of getting double teamed triple teamed
Man I knew he was too happy after the lions game
Just An Awesome Guy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
KOBIE TURNER!!!!!
Outfreakinstanding Episode! It isn't just that it's two of my favorite players, but the chemistry, banter and flow of the chat was great and not without great questions and answers.
Awesome episode my guy 💪💪🤘🏻🤘🏻
Guna miss seeing Dominican thanos play
aaron as someone who has seen your entire career i want to say you are truly a rare 1 of 1 there will never be another aaron donald
Besides the fact that you guys where great football players. I love the way you are real and emotional in this interview. Big up 💯
Ad gonna unretire when the rams make the playoffs
AD I want you to know I am so proud to have you on my team, and you made my outlook on life so inspired to be my best as a human. You are the very best human to ever play the game and the most inspiring man I have ever seen. My only regret is not ever seen you play. Without you the Rams would have never have done what they have. You and McVay are the reason my team has their respect in the NFL. You left use in great shape. Love you man. Have a blessed lfe my man…
Rams legends ❤
A broken clock is right two times a day, great pod! Love hearing behind the scene stories
21:30
The greatest football player I have ever seen
I know he only won ONE Super Bowl but that ONE year was a dream year, that playoff run was truly epic and I can't think of ANYONE in football history that was great enough to CLOSE out not ONE but TWO championship games in a row…the SAME WAY!! There really was no one like this guy.
One man wrecking crew. Soooo quick and explosive. We’ll probably never see another talent like this. Thx Aaron
Thank you Aaron… U done so much for us
