“I will say two years from now,” Durant replied. Micah Parsons was there with Durant and Adams, and while he didn’t say that would happen, the Dallas Cowboys star pass rusher gave some love to Commanders head coach Dan Quinn.

“Yo, I only rock with Dan Quinn,” Parsons said. That made Durant happy, as he said, “Exactly. That’s all ya need to rock with!”

It would be interesting to see Parson in Commanders colors, but the Cowboys are working to get a new contract extension for Parsons. Earlier this month, ESPN’s Adam Schefter shared the latest on Parsons and his pending contract extension with Dallas.
