Los Angeles Rams defensive lineman Aaron Donald joked with reporters on Thursday about missing an opportunity to score his first NFL touchdown against the Los Angeles Chargers. Donald failed to scoop up a loose fumble with a clear path to the end zone, and he subsequently spent Thursday's practice focusing on drills to recover fumbled footballs.

The Rams may also welcome back edge rusher Myles Garrett for Sunday's game against the Washington Commanders after Garrett returned to practice following knee surgery. If activated from injured reserve, it will mark the first time that Donald and Garrett have played together for the 4-4 Rams.
