When NFL fans casually discuss defensive lineman in today’s game, the first name to pop up most of the time is Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle, Aaron Donald. And guess what? I don’t blame them. Donald is easily one of, if not, the best defensive lineman in the game.
In no way is Donald overrated, and he’s undoubtedly a handful against opposing linemen around the league. But just because Donald is always talked about, doesn’t mean that credit should be taken away from others. Specifically, Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle, Fletcher Cox.
