About Parker
Expert Analysis
Alin Edouard | Prep Redzone Scout
Parker, a tight end committed to Baylor, is a dynamic and versatile player who makes an impact in every phase of the offense. In the passing game, he uses his size, strong hands, and body control to make contested catches look routine, even in tight coverage. Parker runs precise routes, creates separation with his athleticism, and consistently turns short passes into big gains after the catch.

Originally a standout tight end, Almanza’s move to quarterback due to injury has been one of the season’s best storylines. His athleticism, arm strength, and dual-threat ability have powered Byron Nelson’s offense to new heights. In Week 8 vs. Eaton, he exploded for 416 all-purpose yards and 7 total touchdowns (6 passing, 1 rushing). If Byron Nelson defeats L.D. Bell in Week 10, they’ll punch their playoff ticket and with Almanza at the helm, they’ll be a tough out in November.

Though his team fell short, Almanza reminded everyone why Baylor secured his commitment. Taking over quarterback duties, he showed tremendous athleticism, delivering multiple touchdown passes with precision and touch. His strong arm stretched the field, while his physicality as a runner made him a dual-threat weapon. He spun it with confidence and gave his team a chance throughout the game.
