Rams' Aaron Donald on Playing in Empty Stadiums: 'You Need Fans to Play a Game'

Speaking to reporters on a video call Thursday, Donald explained that fans are a vital part of NFL games and make an impact on the players themselves (h/t ESPN's Lindsey Thiry):

"You need fans to play a game. I don't see how you could play a game without no fans. I feel like that takes out the excitement and the fun out of the game.
