Aaron Donald, 31, says he could walk away from football after just eight seasons without playing another down and be satisfied.

While appearing on Brandon Marshall's "I Am Athlete" podcast, Donald said four times he is "at peace" with his career.

Donald is not participating in the voluntary organized team activities with the Los Angeles Rams as he seeks a new contract, having outplayed the six-year, $125 million deal he signed in 2018.

"It ain't about the money, but it's a business at the end of the day," Donald said. "That's what you've got to see. For me, it’s about winning. I don’t want to play football if I can’t win anyway, so I feel like if I got a real opportunity to win another Super Bowl, then it makes sense to play. But again, it’s still a business. We’ve got to handle the business side of things, and if that wasn’t to get handled then, you know, it is what it is type of situation. I’ll be fine regardless.

"But me talking about retirement, that was happening way before we won a Super Bowl. I’ve been saying that since I got into the league that I was going to play eight years and be done. That’s just what I’ve been saying. It just came out and then everybody think that, ‘Oh, he said if he wins a Super Bowl he’s going to retire.’ Nah, I got teammates, coaches, my family who know about this. I said I’m going to play eight years, and I’m going to probably be done playing football. But winning a Super Bowl you get kind of a little addicted to it. I ain’t going to lie. I want to feel that again. That experience is like none other. If I was to play, it’s just to win another Super Bowl, but at the end of the day, it’s still a business and it got to make sense to me and my family."
