(CBS Miami)- Miami Dolphins safety Steven Parker is entering his second season with the team and third year in the NFL. While the coronavirus pandemic has changed the offseason in ways previously unforeseen, it hasn’t stopped him from working to help youths in the Oklahoma City community.
Parker has been working with Man UP, a local program started by Lt. Wayland Cubit and Sgt. Tony Escobar of the Oklahoma City Police Department as part of the Family Awareness and Community Teamwork (FACT) program. FACT is a gang prevention program that aims to help youth fight against the pressures of gangs and instill good character traits and life skills.
