Recently retired Los Angeles rams legend Aaron Donald has gained the respect of most of his peers, including Jason Kelce.
The Los Angeles Rams have had one of the best defensive players in the NFL for a long time, but this upcoming season will be the first time they have been without him for the last ten years.
Aaron Donald has tallied a sack against every NFL team except the New York Jets, the Philadelphia Eagles, and obviously the Rams. But in a recent episode of the New Heights Podcast, former Eagles offensive lineman Jason Kelce says that there is a reason Donald never got a sack against his team.
“I gotta set this record straight because I see a lot of people on social media list all of Aaron’s sacks against quarterbacks. People [say, Donald] never had a sack against the Eagles. Oh, the Eagles had his number.” Kelce said. “We double-teamed him, we triple-teamed him every single game, alright. He is the only defensive tackle we have ever gone up against where the entire game plan is situated on not having him ruin the game. The only one.”
Donald is one of the most successful pass-rushers of this generation and is one of the most intimidating of all time. According to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, Donald has been doubled 1,797 times in the last six years.
That’s 152 more than any other player in the NFL, regardless of position. Remarkably, Donald still leads all defensive tackles with a pass-rush win rate of 26% since 2017.
Kelce is one of the best offensive linemen of this generation, so to have that amount of respect from someone like that is a testament to just how dominant Donald was.
