Overview
- Multiple outlets report Dallas has agreed to terms or is finalizing a deal with Parker to replace Matt Eberflus, who was fired earlier this month.
- Parker served as the Eagles’ passing game coordinator and defensive backs coach the past two seasons under Vic Fangio, with earlier stops in Green Bay and Denver.
- Philadelphia’s pass defense ranked among the league’s best during Parker’s tenure, and young corners Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean developed into All-Pros.
- Eagles defensive back Cooper DeJean publicly praised Parker after the news, saying he “wouldn’t be the player I am without Coach CP.”
- Dallas is turning to a Fangio-influenced approach after allowing an NFL-worst 511 points in 2025, a move that could foreshadow greater emphasis on rebuilding the secondary.
