Philadelphia Eagles

Christian Parker enters his first year as the passing game coordinator/defensive backs coach of the Philadelphia Eagles. Prior to his arrival, Parker coached the defensive backs for the Denver Broncos from 2021-23.

In 2023, Parker oversaw a group that featured second-team Associated Press All-Pro safety Justin Simmons as well as Pro Bowl cornerback Pat Surtain. Under Parker's direction, Simmons led the Broncos defense with three interceptions to go along with 70 tackles and eight passes defended, while Surtain finished with 12 passes defensed and one interception.

During the 2022 campaign, Parker guided a secondary that helped the team finish seventh in the NFL in yards allowed per game (320.0). Denver's defensive backs accounted for 11 of the Broncos' 15 picks, including an NFL-leading six interceptions by Simmons, who joined Surtain as the only defensive backs from the same team to earn All-Pro honors that year.

In his first season with Denver in 2021, Parker assisted a unit that was eighth in the NFL in total defense, allowing 326.1 yards per game. He additionally led Simmons to his second All-Pro campaign while mentoring Surtain to All-Rookie recognition from the Pro Football Writers of America.

Before joining the Broncos, Parker spent his first two NFL seasons as a defensive quality control coach with the Green Bay Packers (2019-20). In 2020, he helped cornerback Jaire Alexander collect his first All-Pro and Pro Bowl accolades after logging 13 pass breakups with one interception.
