Aaron Donald says his back feels better after rest and he plans to play for the Los Angeles Rams against the Buffalo Bills on Monday night.

Aaron Donald's back is feeling much better after a week of rest and treatment, and the 35-year-old defensive tackle plans to play for the Rams against the Buffalo Bills on Monday night. Donald missed Los Angeles' comeback victory at Philadelphia after his first injury setback during his comeback from a two-and-a-half-year retirement.

Donald skipped all of last week's practices in an attempt to get his back ready to face the Eagles, but the Rams ultimately decided not to push things early in the season. He went through a full practice at the Rams' training complex on Friday with no setbacks.

'I feel a lot better than what I was, so that's good,' Donald said. 'Just followed the regimen from the Rams' training staff to get me back right where I need to be. Whatever they had me doing, I did, and I feel great right now.' He added that his fitness does not feel compromised. 'I do feel good. I don't feel like my wind is off. I don't feel like I'm out there exhausted,' he said. His proposed pairing with Myles Garrett does not appear to be in the Rams' immediate future.
