Aaron Donald’s NFL career has been filled with countless accolades and accomplishments.
He won the Defensive Rookie of the Year award for the Los Angeles Rams and is a seven-time first-team All-Pro.
Madden 24 is slated to release in late-August, but in the lead-up to the launch, members of the 99 Club have been unveiled.
Donald was not only announced as a member of this group but now holds the record for most years with those honors, per ESPN.

This is his seventh-straight season as a 99 overall, which passes Peyton Manning who achieved this feat six-straight times.
Donald has continued to be one of the most dominating defenders across the league.
During the offseason, reports have surfaced about Donald’s potential retirement.
If recent reporting is any indication, however, Donald is now looking to play, at least for one more year.
He is tied to the Rams for the next two seasons and is set to make over $60 million during that time, per Spotrac.
The Rams are coming off a 5-12 record in 2022, a far cry from their Super Bowl victory in 2021.
With any luck, Donald and the rest of the defense will get back to their dominant ways, making a run for the NFC West title.
They’ll have to contend at the top with the San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks, both of which made the playoffs last season.
However, if the Rams are fully healthy, something that was not the case last year, they should be in a much better position to do so.
