Parker’s receiver coach Justin Koleno says a few words, “ Parker contributes to the team in a lot of ways that do not show up on stats. He is scrappy and physical. When a player acts like him, it’s contagious.” Koleno continues to comment on the Friday-night game, “We had to play a couple spells without him and everyone could see the difference.”
