San Francisco 49ers Get Bad News on $181 Million Rams Superstar

The San Francisco 49ers face a tougher-than-expected season opener in Melbourne, Australia, with both Los Angeles Rams stars Aaron Donald and Myles Garrett expected to play. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported on Sunday that Donald is traveling with the team and “will likely find his way to the field.” The main question is workload, given Donald’s age (35) and that he retired after the 2023 season before unretiring on a one-year, $20 million contract. The deal lifts his career earnings to about $181 million. The Rams enter 2026 as Super Bowl favorites, with FanDuel listing +500 odds, ahead of the Bills (+1000), Seahawks (+1100), Ravens (+1300) and Chargers (+1600).
