"After an impressive three seasons with the Broncos' defense in which he helped develop Patrick Surtain II from a rookie top-10 pick into an All-Pro cornerback, Parker was on the move again. This time he signed on with Cowboys' NFC East rival Philadelphia, the Eagles hiring Parker as their DBs coach and passing game coordinator to work directly underneath defensive guru Vic Fangio. Parker had worked with Fangio in Denver as well."
"With the help of Parker, Fangio and a dynamic All-Pro duo at corner in Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean, the Eagles won the franchise's second Super Bowl last season. Parker was seen as a "secret weapon" of sorts in the Eagles' defensive room. "He's one of those coaches that gets his players," Eagles' safety Reed Blankenship said last season. "Yeah, he's a little young, but I'd much rather have a young coach like that because he understands us. And there's no barrier between us or him. We're going with the flow. Communicates all the time. Comes to the sideline - something happens - and we're always talking.""
CP Parker developed Patrick Surtain II into an All-Pro cornerback over three seasons with the Broncos. Parker then joined the Philadelphia Eagles as defensive backs coach and passing game coordinator under Vic Fangio and contributed to a defense that won the franchise's second Super Bowl with corners Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean. Players praised Parker's communication, relatability, and influence on their development. After the Super Bowl season, Parker signed with NFC East rival Dallas Cowboys, prompting public disappointment from Eagles players who credited him for their growth.
