Aaron Donald making his presence felt with or without sacks
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- The Los Angeles Rams defense hasn't allowed a touchdown through two victories this season.
But opponents haven't allowed star defensive tackle Aaron Donald to record a sack.
It could come as a surprise that the two-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year, who had 20.5 sacks last season, has yet to take down a quarterback in 2019.
But perhaps it shouldn't.
"Everybody's gunning for him," said defensive coordinator Wade Phillips before the opener. "We know everybody's going to try to block two guys on him or three guys on him if they can. He's had that, really, a lot last year, but I expect it more this year."
