Parker, a 6'3" 209-pound speedster, was the 14th overall pick in the 2015 NFL draft and the third wide receiver selected.

The team will continue the mandatory minicamp with Greg Jennings, who signed a two-year, $8 million contract with the team this off-season, 2012 second-round draft pick Jarvis Landry, and Kenny Stills, who was traded to Miami for linebacker Dannell Ellerbe and a third-round draft choice in March.
