A Second Team All-ACC pick by both the league and the Associated Press, Parker II is in his third season as Duke's starting right tackle and was a preseason All-America pick by Phil Steele (third team) and Athlon Sports (fourth team). He was named to five Midseason All-America squads.Â
He started all 13 games for the Blue Devils and helped Duke capture its first ACC Championship Game title in program history and an outright ACC crown for the first time since 1962. The Cincinnati, Ohio, native has an 86.5 Pro Football Focus (PFF) offensive grade, the sixth highest among FBS offensive linemen and fifth best among tackles. He was named the ACC Offensive Lineman of the Week following the team's 38-3 victory at Syracuse on September 27. He was also named to the PFF National Team of the Week for his efforts against the Orange.Â
Parker II and the Blue Devils cap their season December 31 at the Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl, taking on Arizona State at 2 p.m. on CBS.
