On Monday, the Atlanta Falcons added a new defensive back by signing former Kansas City safety Ron Parker with a one-year contract. As Parker settles in with the Falcons, the veteran made it evident how highly he thinks of his new team.
“They’ve got a great team — got great guys, all around: Special teams, defense, offense. I just think the organization fits my style,” Parker told AtlantaFalcons.com’s William McFadden. “I’ve got some relationships with the coaches in here — [head coach] Dan Quinn and [defensive coordinator Marquand Manuel]. I saw them early in my career when I was in Seattle, so we have good background history just from knowing each other.
