Aaron Donald Believes that God is Great
Even when winning a SuperBowl, Donald acknowledged the role of God in that.
By Faith on the Field Staff, October 2, 2022
Aaron Donald is a defensive tackle for the Los Angeles Rams. Regarded as one of the greatest defensive players of all time, he has received a record three Defensive Player of the Year Awards, Pro Bowl selections in all eight of his seasons, and seven first-team All-Pro honors. Donald was also a member of the team that won Super Bowl LVI.
But Aaron is also a man of faith, a topic he was able to discuss recently with our own Rob Maaddi. Donald has played a lot of football but has to keep the right perspective weekly to perform on the field.
“I'm just trying to relive all that over again, trying to accomplish the being a world champion all over again and you know that that's the biggest motivation. I was motivated to get there, but once you accomplish that and you get to see what that feel like it's like, it makes you want it that much more.”

After securing a Superbowl win, Donald said it was the best feeling in the world, but also said “God is great.”
“Obviously you put a lot of work in, but God put us in certain positions that you know to be able to live out what you want to live out and do what you need to do. I accomplished something like that. And we know so much emotions come at once and would come from the heart. And I would be wrong not to give thanks to God for putting me in the positions I'm in today, so you know, I just wanted to give thanks to him.”
“I always say it's a blessing to be playing this game and you know, being a position I'm in today, so, you know, obviously put a lot of work in, but, you know, God got his hands and everything.”
