Los Angeles Rams defensive stars Aaron Donald and Myles Garrett are preparing to share the field together for the first time this season when the team hosts the Washington Commanders on Sunday. The pairing combines two of the NFL's most dominant pass rushers, whose career sack totals reach a combined 236.5.
Donald, a three-time Defensive Player of the Year, and Garrett, the 2023 award winner, have been building chemistry in practice ahead of their regular-season debut as teammates. Both players expressed enthusiasm about the opportunity to collaborate on the defensive line.
The Rams acquired Garrett in a blockbuster offseason trade, aiming to create a historic pass-rushing duo alongside Donald. Sunday's matchup against Washington will provide the first live test of their partnership in game conditions.
Head coach Sean McVay has indicated both defensive ends will see significant snaps as the Rams look to strengthen their defensive front. The Commanders' offensive line faces the challenge of containing two elite edge rushers simultaneously.
