Aaron Donald, former defensive tackle for the Los Angeles Rams, patted himself on the back last week after his name was added to the Pitt Athletic Hall of Fame. Donald, who played for the Pittsburgh Panthers college football team for four seasons before being drafted by the Rams, was honored on Friday for his numerous contributions to the game.
Donald shared a bunch of pictures from his special day on his Instagram post, including a sweet picture of the defensive legend’s family. Donald’s wife Erica also dropped her congratulations for her husband in the comments section of the post.

Aaron Donald played in the NFL for the Los Angeles Rams for ten seasons and even managed to win the Super Bowl once during that time. The talented player proved that he is one of the best defensive players in the league with three DPOY awards.
Meanwhile, Donald’s former team, the Los Angeles Rams are pushing through this season with three wins so far. The Rams last met the Colts in the previous week and managed an impressive win. The team will try to build on this in the upcoming matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.

Aaron Donald Was Left Teetering In Fear Because Of A Stalker
While Aaron Donald may have built himself up as one of the best defenses in the league, the player was left rattled sometime back as a result of a stalker. Donald was bombarded with incessant emails from a strange woman whom he had never met. The lady constantly sent him emails and packages and even made contact with his brother.
Perhaps the last straw for Donald was when he feared for the safety of his children, especially after the stalker admitted that she met his daughter at a football camp. The retired defensive tackle managed to file a restraining order against the woman back in April this year. Apparently, the pattern had been going on for years together. Donald did not take any action back then since he felt that it was just another passionate fan.
