Defensive lineman Aaron Donald is one sack short of 100 entering the Rams' next game against the Atlanta Falcons, a feat unheard of for an interior lineman
Rams starter Allen Robinson only saw two passes come his way in the season opener, clearly not enough for a receiver of such high value.The Rams are eager to put it behind them when they play a Falcons team that blew a 16-point, fourth-quarter lead in a 27-26 defeat to the New Orleans Saints.
Donald, the 13th pick in the 2014 draft, is a three-time NFL defensive player of the year. He is a seven-time All-Pro and has been voted to the Pro Bowl in each of his eight NFL seasons. The NFL did not make sacks an official statistic until 1982. Former Buffalo defensive end Bruce Smith is the all-time leader with 200. Donald ranks 40th on a list dominated almost exclusively by defensive ends and outside linebackers.
Von Miller , Chandler Jones , Cameron Jordan , Justin Houston , J.J. Watt and Robert Quinn are active players with 100 sacks or more. All are defensive ends or linebackers.
