Eric

Parker

No word on his availability for next week.

Parker has been a disappointment thus far as a starter in San Diego.

Both players have been slowed by injuries during the preseason. Parker would be a sleeper if he wasn’t on the Chargers.

We’re not going to get too excited until we some production. Quick, try to name San Diego’s No. 1 receiver last season.

Parkers’ value goes up with Reche Caldwell likely out.

Dwight will play. Parker is listed as questionable, but is expected to play.

Both have decent chances to play this week versus Jacksonville.

That includes Parker. Don’t expect a full day from him.

Assuming Parker is healthy (a bad calf nagged him this spring), he shouldn’t have trouble finding work. Parker is only 29, can play special teams, and caught 57 passes as recently as 2006. The Browns are most likely to show interest, but Oakland, Miami, Dallas, and Baltimore may also pursue him.

His absence could give Vincent Jackson a chance to play with the first team and possibly challenge for a starting role.
