Sources: Los Angeles Rams, DT Aaron Donald reach $60 million extension

The Los Angeles Rams are giving All-Pro defensive tackle Aaron Donald a two-year, $60 million extension, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Donald had indicated on the I Am Athlete podcast last week that his return for the 2022 season was contingent on getting a new deal and he would be "at peace" with his career if an agreement couldn't be reached.

Donald, who is signed through the 2024 season, has no guaranteed money left on that deal.

He sealed the Rams' victory over the Cincinnati Bengals in Super Bowl LVI when he pressured quarterback Joe Burrow into an errant throw on fourth down late in the fourth quarter.
