Overview
- The Rams and Cowboys are scheduled to hold a joint training-camp practice on Tuesday in the Woodland Hills/Oxnard area that will put Durant directly against his former team.
- Durant has said he is “overly excited” to face the Rams and has spent camp in Dallas often covering CeeDee Lamb as he integrates into the Cowboys’ defense.
- Coaches have penciled in specific matchups for the session, with Durant and DaRon Bland set to work against Puka Nacua and Davante Adams while Trent McDuffie and Jaylen Watson are expected to cover George Pickens and CeeDee Lamb.
- Reports note Durant left Los Angeles in free agency and signed with Dallas, with one outlet reporting a one-year, $4 million deal although that contract figure has limited sourcing.
- The practice will also function as an early exam of Los Angeles’s offseason overhaul at cornerback after the team added McDuffie and Watson and has been praised in camp reports for improved coverage.
