Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay wants to make NBA MVP Kevin Durant the secret weapon of his team.

In response to Durant expressing the desire to join the Rams via social media, McVay said it would not be difficult to find a role for the long strikers of the Golden State Warriors.

"I bet it's going to be very dangerous in the red zone on some of those jump balls," McVay joked. to journalists on Monday.

Forget the alleys. Durant managed to snatch landing passes in the end zone, the Randy Moss style.

Durant is 6 feet 9 inches tall and has a 34-inch vertical jump, according to The Exercisers. There were only a handful of players around Durant to play professional football, with defensive tackle Richard Sligh at 7 feet and the Oakland Raiders in the 1960s, according to Sport.ONE. Harold Carmichael, aged 6 to 8, is one of the greatest receivers of all time. Morris Stroud, at 6-10, is one of the tallest tight ends of all time.

The Rams just cleared the Arizona Cardinals 34-0 to improve to 2-0 behind a tenacious defense led by NFL defensive player of the year in 2017, Aaron Donald. Durant, a two-time champion with the Warriors, praised Donald in an Instagram story, expressing interest in joining Rams' winning methods.

"If he thinks he wants to do that, we'll welcome him," McVay said. "He can come with us when he wants."
