Aaron Donald skips the Rams’ season opener against the 49ers, staying home as head coach Sean McVay confirms he’s not traveling with the team — a cautious move after his dramatic return from retirement just 18 days ago. While it’s a huge relief for San Francisco fans facing the Rams’ fearsome pass rush without their most dominant defensive force, Rams supporters are understandably disappointed. With only two weeks of practice under his belt and a contract incentive tied to game participation, Donald’s absence makes sense — and the team expects him back by Week 3 at the latest. It’s a calculated risk that prioritizes long-term health and performance over immediate impact — and yes, it’s also a major win for the 49ers.
