Aaron Donald has ‘realistic’ chance to play vs. Giants

The Los Angeles Rams are preparing for their Week 2 home contest against the New York Giants on Monday night following an opening defeat against the San Francisco 49ers in Australia. There is currently a viable path for Aaron Donald to suit up for the matchup, though head coach Sean McVay has avoided making a firm commitment regarding the defensive lineman's availability.

Los Angeles must navigate defensive adjustments after learning that standout pass rusher Myles Garrett requires surgical treatment for a knee issue and will be sidelined on the injured list. This injury officially delays the planned defensive tandem of Donald and Garrett, while the visiting Giants enter the contest aiming to secure their second consecutive upset victory.
