The Denver Broncos are losing one of their most desired assistants, if not the most. Christian Parker, the secondary coach for the Broncos, is anticipated to join the Philadelphia Eagles, reuniting with new defensive coordinator and former Denver head coach Vic Fangio, according to a Monday report from ESPN’s Dan Graziano. At the time of publication, it’s unknown what position Parker will have in Philadelphia under Fangio. What are the Broncos’ next moves? Keep up with all the news and analysis!

He spent two seasons as a quality control coach in Green Bay before joining the Broncos in 2021. Since then, he has been credited with developing defensive backs Ja’Quan McMillian, PJ Locke, and Caden Sterns, as well as Pro Bowl cornerback Patrick Surtain II and All-Pro safety Justin Simmons. “Dude, he’s sharp.” He is intelligent. He is renowned. In June of last year, Broncos DC Vance Joseph said of Parker, “He is a great partner to work with.” “I’ve coordinated for almost seven years now as an experienced coach. Now that my tape is out, I’m trying to think of other approaches. It’s been enjoyable to talk to Christian every day and bounce ideas off of him regarding his previous experiences with people and [Dolphins Defensive Coordinator] Vic Fangio. We’re adapting and expanding upon their work from the previous year.
He is a brilliant guy who puts in a lot of work, and his players enjoy being around him. He is renowned. Given that Parker interviewed for coordinator positions with the Patriots and Packers last month, it appeared as though the question was when, not if, he would move on to more favourable surroundings. Now, he’s in a greener place physically, as he has to turn around an Eagles defence that collapsed in 2023, ranking 30th in terms of scores allowed and passing yards allowed per game.
