The eight-time First-Team All-Pro did not play in the club’s season opener in Australia, which resulted in a 27-7 loss. Los Angeles will hope Aaron Donald returns to full form and helps out the defense, as the Rams are dealing with several injuries, including Puka Nacua, who was ruled out for Monday’s matchup.If he’s anything like his elite self, then the Rams’ interior defensive line will be a problem this year. Donald enters this game with 543 combined tackles (340 solo), 111 sacks, 24 forced fumbles, and seven fumble recoveries accumulated throughout his career.As for Beckham, the 33-year-old wideout did make an appearance in the Giants’ 28-20 Week 1 win over the Dallas Cowboys. However, he did not record a single stat. Odell Beckham Jr. returned to New York after not playing for the organization since the 2019-20 campaign. This is his first year back in the NFL after skipping the 2025-26 season.The three-time Pro Bowler’s best years were with the Giants when he was picked in the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft. He’ll play on Monday night with 575 receptions, 7,987 yards, and 59 touchdowns recorded through 120 career games (97 starts).Related: What NFL said about field concerns for Ravens vs. Cowboys in Rio de JaneiroRelated: Michael Irvin hates on preseason trend after Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels add to injury woes around league
