Wayshawn Parker and NaQuari Rogers have been a solid one-two punch in the backfield for the Utes this season.

Now they just need a nickname.

Detroit Lions running backs Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery are “Sonic and Knuckles” from the Sega video game, while Tennessee Titans running backs LenDale White and Chris Johnson were called “Smash and Dash.”

“That one-two punch, me and NaQuari, just having a back like that is a dual threat. That chemistry that we have is there. I know there’s a squad out there, the Lions, Jahmyr Gibbs, ‘Knuckles and Sonic.’ I mean, we got to come up with a name,” Parker said.
