Former Los Angeles Rams DT Aaron Donald grew up in Pittsburgh but never played for his hometown Steelers. He thought about it at one point early in his career and it was a near-constant source of speculation, but it never happened. That didn’t mean he didn’t get inspiration from the Steelers. It just came from an unlikely source: former Pittsburgh WR Antonio Brown.
Donald joined former Rams teammate Chris Long on the Green Light podcast on Thursday. One of the recurring themes was how hard of a worker Donald was. He recalled watching how others worked, and Brown stuck out to him.
