Aaron Donald looks to establish a media and entertainment footprint
linkAs defensive tackle Aaron Donald focuses for now on whether he’ll end a two-year playing hiatus in pursuit of a second Super Bowl ring, he’s activating a longer-term vision for his post-football future.
Via Ryan Glasspiegel of Front Office Sports, Donald has hired Jon Rosen of Envisionary to “grow his businesses, brand partnerships, and overall profile in the media and entertainment industries.”
Per Glasspiegel, Donald is currently developing a docuseries.
Earlier this year, Donald served as a guest analyst for NBC’s Super Bowl pregame show.
He has otherwise kept a fairly low profile since retiring after the 2023 season. It appears that Donald will be re-entering the public eye in a significant way. All that’s left to be determined is whether it’s as a player, as a media personality — or both.
Still, another season as a high-profile player on a franchise that will play at least seven prime-time games in 2026 will go a long way towards increasing his profile generally. Which becomes an even better way to fuel his looming foray into media and entertainment.
#HelmetHornsMatter
“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.
“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
