Aaron Donald will not travel to Australia and will be inactive for the Rams' Week 1 opener against the 49ers.

Sean McVay said Tuesday the Rams want more ramp-up time after Donald's return from two seasons away. Donald unretired Aug. 30 and first worked 11-on-11 on Sep. 6. McVay called Week 1 a really quick turnaround.

The game is still on: San Francisco at the Rams on Thursday at 8:35 p.m. ET on Netflix in Melbourne (ESPN gameId 401872657).
