Athletic Profile
Duncan Parker is a dynamic dual-threat quarterback with strong mobility traits and the ability to consistently create outside of structure.

Quarterback Evaluation
Movement Skills
Parker shows legitimate speed with a reported 4.8 level burst and the ability to stay ahead of pursuit in open space. He accelerates quickly and maintains efficiency when operating outside the pocket. His mobility is a defining part of his game, though continued strength and weight gains will be important for long term durability and dual-threat projection.
Passing Ability
He displays strong downfield ball placement and the ability to throw accurately on the run while keeping his eyes downfield. Parker has a smooth, quick release and can distribute the ball effectively in rhythm or off-platform. Arm strength is adequate, though overall zip can be inconsistent at times.
Football Intelligence
Parker shows solid processing ability and makes multiple correct reads within structure. He is especially effective in option concepts, showing good recognition of edge defenders and making appropriate keep or handoff decisions. He generally protects the football and avoids unnecessary risk, though he can occasionally bypass checkdowns in favor of big play attempts.
