If you’re reading this post from outside our usual footprint, then you might not know that we’re based out of Nashville, Tennessee. And so, we’re a big J Tennessee Titans website, and we absolutely love our freakish Derrick Henry workout videos every summer. That said, I think it’s time that us Titans fans acknowledge Los Angeles Rams defensive lineman, and maybe the best to ever damn do it, Aaron Donald for his absolutely insane workout regimen. Henry does some awe-inspiring things, for sure, but Donald just takes the violence up to another level. There’s something about the way he trains that is just dark – first it was dodging literal knives, and now we’ve got a clip of some drill from out at Rams practice during which he is literally choking a mf.
This does not look like a fun drill for # 69 lmao pic.twitter.com/TTlGTnJ0EZ

I just…..okay, I have questions here. Namely, kind of like with the knives…what on Earth does this have to do with playing football? Have I missed something? Did they make it okay to choke people? Is that a valuable trait to practice and really hone in on in the NFL in this day and age?
My man #69 here (the Rams website says it’s Elijah Garcia, but I know team websites aren’t always accurate when it comes to the roster) is walking up to Donald like he’s walking to the electric chair, too. I can’t say I’d be thrilled either. Donald is an absolute freak of nature and it seems like the more insane his training regimen gets, the more likely it is that someone actually dies doing this stuff. You could be moments away from taking your last breath! Of course, that’s going to be grim. But, hey – whatever it takes to make it in the NFL, I guess. They always say you gotta find a role on the team and stick to it. Maybe this guy has found his role in just getting choked by Aaron Donald every day until Aaron Donald is adequately satisfied with his ability to choke a dude, which apparently makes you a better football player.
You truly do learn something new every day when you wake up and log on. Also, this is giving me major Andre The Giant choking Bob Uecker vibes.
