The Rams pulled out a 23-20 win over the Cincinnati Bengals, and after the game, Donald was asked about the reports, but he responded by saying that he was "just in the moment right now."

Rams general manager Les Snead, who drafted Donald No. 13 overall in the 2014 NFL Draft, spoke to NFL.com following the team’s win, and he said that he doesn’t believe the seven-time All-Pro player is ready to hang up his cleats just yet.

"He’ll sleep on it and see, but I’m not buying it," Snead said told NFL Media. "He’s a young kid. He’ll get bored and need something to do."

During the 2021 postseason, Donald came away with 3.5 sacks and nine QB hits. He sacked Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow twice and had a hit on him on fourth-and-1 that sealed the victory for the Rams.
