Comment on Former Dolphins first-round pick DeVante Parker retires

DeVante Parker, the former Miami Dolphins wide receiver and first-round draft pick, has retired. Parker, who spent his first seven NFL seasons with the Dolphins, was just more than two months removed from signing with the Philadelphia Eagles this offseason. However, as teams across the league get going with organized team activities ahead of the 2024 season, he decided to call it a career instead. The 31-year-old cited wanting to spend more time with his children to ESPN as his reasoning for the decision. Parker, although often battling injuries, never had a season where he played fewer than double-digit games.
