Aaron Donald is a Super Bowl champion. The long-time Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle finally added a ring to his already insane resume, beating the Cincinnati Bengals during Super Bowl 56. One of the best defensive players of all-time now has a championship to show off.

After the game, Donald was immediately interviewed on the field. The Rams star couldn't hold back his tears after the game, as the championship meant so much to him.

“I'm just so happy… I wanted this so bad, I dreamed this! It's surreal… look at this! I feel amazing… I feel great.”

It felt fitting that Donald was the key catalyst in sealing the Rams' first Super Bowl ring in LA. The superstar defensive tackle made two key stops against the Bengals on the final drive, stopping Samaje Perine on a third and 1 run, then sacking star QB Joe Burrow on the fourth down attempt to finish off the team.

It was a magical season for the Rams, who basically went all-in for the season. An off-season trade for ex-Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford was the start of their moves. Adding Von Miller and Odell Beckham Jr. in the offseason further solidified their goal: Super Bowl. Now, they've finally reached that goal.

Rumors of Aaron Donald potentially walking away from the game after a Super Bowl win swirled prior to the kick-off. Now, the Rams DT can finally retire at peace, as he walks away on top of the NFL. His already airtight case for the Pro Football Hall of Fame just became even stronger with this win.
