Amongst his many accomplishments, one area that may be overlooked is that Aaron Donald has set a career-high this season with 77 tackles, which is 32 more tackles than he had last season and 29 more than he had in 2019. This comes at a time when Donald has played in 118 more snaps and a handful of more opponent runs, but no less signals that the 30-year-old defensive lineman may have never been asked to carry a heavier load than what he’s dealt with this season.
It’s a good thing he doesn’t have to move mountains alone.
