  Aaron Donald could Place sack Album with a big Attempt Sunday
  Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald, motivated all season by his record-breaking contract, is just three sacks from tying Michael Strahan at 22.5.
  THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. — Aaron Donald choked his feelings back last Sunday because he sat on the team bus after a success within the Arizona Cardinals.
  The Los Angeles Rams defensive handle had just recorded three sacks to bring his season total to 19.5, and then set a brand new single-season record to get a defensive attack and was probably the most sacks by a Rams player simply because they became an official man stat in 1982.
  "I sort of had to toughen up and never discard the tears," Donald said Thursday. "That's stuff you dream about. You always want success however, you won't ever think it will be as big as it is."
  On Sunday at a regular-season finale contrary to the San Francisco 49ers (4-11), Donald could have another chance to make history. Plus it might be much bigger.
  Donald, the defending NFL Defensive Player of the season, features a chance to tie — or perhaps break — Hall of Fame defensive end Michael Strahan's single-season sack record of 22.5, which Strahan place in 2001 when he first popped for the nyc Giants.
  "You never know what could happen," Donald explained. "But just going to play with the game so when plays promote themselves decide to attempt to use it just make an effort to help my team to win."
  Donald will require three sacks to connect Strahan's record, and 3.5 to crack it. Big amounts, but certainly attainable for Donald.
  Last Sunday, he also recorded three sacks against newcomer quarterback Josh Rosen. And in Week 7 against the 49ers, Donald place a career-high when he sacked backup C.J. Beathard four days.
  On Sunday, Donald will get his shot at the single-season record against newcomer Nick Mullens, an undrafted free agent from 20 17 from Southern Mississippi who began this year on the practice group.
  "It would be great," said defensive coordinator Wade Phillips, who has coached Donald for two seasons.
  Before the season, Donald signed up a six-year, $135 million expansion that left him that the highest-paid defensive player in NFL history (Chicago Bears defensive ending Khalil Mack signed a deal that would surpass Donald 24 hours later).
  Phillips stated that the contract left Donald feel like he had to"reach a lot" within his fifth year old. "And he's done that," Phillips explained. "It goes ."
  Donald affirmed his play was, atleast in part, inspired by his record-breaking contract.
  "The word many thanks ain't enough," Donald explained. "You't have to reveal it, so just go out there and play with at a higher level and as opposed to saying thankyou personally, reveal it."
