Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald is having a whale of a game against the Seattle Seahawks, but he is now headed to the locker room in the third quarter. He pressured Russell Wilson into an incompletion and pulled him to the ground at the end of the play. Wilson landed on Donald’s abdomen and the all-world pass rusher went to his knee in pain.
Trainers came out and eventually Donald walked off the field. He subsequently went to the locker room and his status midway through the third quarter is unclear.
