Aaron Donald isn’t the most outspoken player in the NFL. He doesn’t like to gloat during his press conferences, even when asked about his list of career accomplishments – a list that now resembles the length of a CVS receipt.
But Donald let loose in Saturday’s wild-card win against the Seahawks. Whether on the field or on the sideline, Donald was chirping at Seattle’s players with various forms of trash talk. And if anyone has the game to back up the talk, it’s a six-time All-Pro like Donald.
He was mic’d up against the Seahawks and the video is must-watch for any Rams fan. He was yelling at DK Metcalf, asking why the Seahawks weren’t dancing like in Week 16 and celebrated several times with Ogbonnia Okoronkwo after big plays.

The best part was when Donald told Damien Lewis, “What’re you gonna do? Don’t turn around like you’re going to do something. You ain’t gonna do [expletive].” Mind you, Lewis is just a wide-eyed rookie, while Donald is a future Hall of Famer.
Donald doesn’t often show emotion like he did against the Seahawks, but he was fired up during that game and understandably so.
