How Aaron Donald's Historic $95M Contract Impacts Rams' Salary Cap

Aaron Donald is staying put with the Los Angeles Rams.

And he's making a lot of money to do so.

The Rams announced Monday that he will be back on a new deal, and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported the reworked contract will pay the defensive tackle $95 million through 2024. It represents a $40 million raise over the next three seasons and makes the future Hall of Famer the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history.

Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk noted this contract replaces his existing one and features a pair of voidable years that kick in at the end of the 2024 league year.
