Even though the 2016 season didn’t go according to plan for the Los Angeles Rams after finishing with a 4-12 record, at least the team still has plenty to be proud of when it comes to having a defensive star on the rise in Aaron Donald. For the third season in a row, the former Pittsburgh star will be representing the Rams in this year’s Pro Bowl, and if that wasn’t impressive enough, Donald also received some recognition from a group of writers over at ESPN.
A group of four writers that cover each of the teams in the division for ESPN recently voted Donald the Defensive Player of the Year in the NFC West, which is quite the honor when seeing some of the other superstars on the Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Cardinals.
