WATCH: Former Alabama star celebrates at Rams parade with outrageous bottle
Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle and former Alabama star A’Shawn Robinson celebrated the Super Bowl win in style, carrying around a cartoonishly large bottle on stage. Equipped with ski goggles and enough alcohol for the entire roster, he paraded around the stage.
A’Shawn Robinson contributed six tackles and one sack in the Super Bowl, helping lead the Rams defense in a dominant second half effort. In addition to Aaron Donald, he also helped limit the Bengals to 79 yards on 20 carries.
The Rams won the game 23-20 thanks to a late comeback effort. Quarterback Matthew Stafford found wide receiver Cooper Kupp in the endzone for the go-ahead touchdown with less than two minutes remaining.
On the season, Robinson finished with a career-high 67 tackles and two sacks. He also added two forced fumbles in the 17-game season.
Rams get good news at parade
Questions surround Sean McVay and Aaron Donald’s futures with the Los Angeles Rams. But they might’ve given an idea of what’s next during Wednesday’s Super Bowl parade. The Rams held the celebration after defeating the Cincinnati Bengals 23-20 on Sunday at SoFi Stadium. Rumors are running rampant about whether or not McVay and Donald will retire after the victory.
Based on their comments on Wednesday, those might just end up being rumors.
“Run it back! Run it back!” McVay chanted five times.
“We built a super team,” Donald said, via NFL.com’s Nick Shook. “We can bring the super team back. Why not run it back? We can be world champs again.”
McVay, 36, just wrapped up his fifth season as Rams head coach and is coming off his first Super Bowl title. During his time as head coach, he’s totaled a 55-26 record and appeared in two Super Bowls.
Donald, an eight-year NFL veteran, cemented himself as the best defensive player in the NFL this year. An eight-time Pro Bowler and seven-time All-Pro nominee, ProFootballTalk’s Mike Florio suggested Donald, 30, could retire if the Rams won the Super Bowl. He sure doesn’t sound ready to hang it up just yet.
With several pending free agents, the chances of reassembling the full squad for another season seems unlikely. However, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers pulled off the unlikely post-Super Bowl retention project which led them back into the playoffs this year. Helping the Rams is the likely retirement of left tackle Andrew Whitworth, which will free up space under the salary cap.
