Los Angeles Chargers defensive back, Derwin James is not buying Micah Parsons was offered at running back by Alabama.
Parsons made the comment during a recent conversation with James. The clip has been seen by more than a million users on Tik Tok.
“Bama offered me…to play running back,” Parsons said.
James quickly refuted the statement.
“No way,” James said. “You ain’t got no finesse, though, bro. I can’t see you as a running back. No offense, bro. You all like football. When they say basketball players that play basketball like football players, they describing you honestly.”

Parsons was a five-star recruit coming out of high school and one of the top defensive end prospects in the country. He did hold an offer from Alabama.
