Aaron Donald is putting off retirement, as the Rams’ all-world defensive tackle is the highest paid non-quarterback in NFL history after agreeing to a restructured three-year, $95 million deal with $65 million guaranteed in the first two years.
Donald, 31, had 12.5 sacks during the 2021 NFL season, then logged 3.5 more in the playoffs during the Rams’ run to the Super Bowl, including the game clincher on the Bengals Joe Burrow.
In eight seasons, Donald has 98 sacks, eight Pro Bowl selections, and seven All-Pro selections as well.
With the future Hall of Famer continuing his career, here are the ten highest-paid defensive tackles in the NFL.
