The defending Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams will be without another one of their stars Sunday afternoon when they host the Seattle Seahawks.
Seven-time All-Pro defensive tackle Aaron Donald will miss a game because of injury for the first time in his nine-year career. Donald sustained a high ankle sprain last week, coach Sean McVay said.
"So much of (the defense) is built around him," McVay said. "He is truly one of one. You don't replace anybody like him. Guys will be asked to step up, (and we) have confidence in those guys, but I think Aaron's resume speaks for itself -- the way that he works, the way that he brings others with him -- so it's a huge loss.
