Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray needed two words and three emojis to deliver the most hilarious reaction to Aaron Donald’s retirement on Friday.
“THANK GOD,” Murray wrote, with emojis to signify his joke, about the close calls he encountered as he offered a salute for Donald.
Donald, 32, retired from the Los Angeles Rams on Friday, ending his potential Hall of Fame career with 111 sacks and a Super Bowl ring in 2021.
Donald’s 100th career sack was against Murray, and the Rams even have a video on their YouTube page titled “Highlights: Aaron Donald Sacking Kyler Murray For 1 Minute Straight.”
Murray has a 1-7 record against the Rams, with Donald sacking him 6.5 times — the second-most of any player he sacked behind Russell Wilson.

Murray followed his hilarious post on X with another tribute for Donald.
“Honored to have competed against the best of All-Time! @AaronDonald97,” Murray wrote. “Enjoy ya retirement and plz don’t come back.”
