Aaron Donald shockingly announced his retirement and Twitter showered him with love
We’ve known for a while that Aaron Donald’s NFL career would end soon. He’s been flirting with retirement for a while now.
But I don’t know if anybody expected it to all suddenly come to an end today.
Donald left fans stunned after announcing his retirement on Twitter. It came out of nowhere. There wasn’t really any speculation about it. There’d hardly been any talk about it this offseason. He just decided he was done playing in the NFL.
He posted this tweet to make the announcement official.
“Cheers to what’s next,” Donald said. “Extending a big thank you to the Rams and all of the fans for your support over these last 10 years. Much love.”
Good for him. It’ll be nice to see him ride off into the sunset. Fans were thrilled for him but still taken aback by how sudden this all was.
