At Atlantic in 2006, Parker was an All-State first team selection and was considered one of the nation's top high school players. Parker earned a scholarship to Florida State and had a standout sophomore season before legal troubles, which included three arrests, ended his career with the Seminoles after his junior season in 2008.

Parker played with Tampa Bay, New Orleans and the New York Giants before he was released by the Giants on September 22, 2015 after a series of crucial dropped passes in multiple games.

Parker, who lives in Delray Beach, was arrested by Boca Raton police.
