The Los Angeles Rams may not be defending their Super Bowl title in the playoffs, but Aaron Donald became a talking point.
As the Miami Dolphins and Buffalo Bills squared off during wild card weekend on Sunday, social media users caught Donald’s Twitter biography being changed.
It read: “former NFL D Linemen for the Rams #99.”
But just as people began noticing, the bio reverted to its original state without the “former.”
Donald, 31, was involved in rumors about a potential retirement after the Rams triumphed in Super Bowl LVI last February, but ended up running it back after receiving a historic raise on a deal that could make him an unrestricted free agent in 2025.
However, Erica Donald, Aaron’s wife, may have put the rumors of a possible retirement or trade request to rest with a tweet shortly after.
The Rams finished the campaign with a dismal 5-12 record, a year in which the roster was mired with injuries and poor form.
Head coach Sean McVay briefly considered stepping away, but later confirmed he’d return to the sidelines next season.
