As the transfer portal window is heading to a close in a couple of days, the Razorbacks seem to be making moves to enhance its defensive line depth. A pair of Washington defensive line transfers Jayvon and Armon Parker have scheduled several visits with Arkansas, Wisconsin, Illinois, and Auburn, according to 247Sports.
While the Parker twins have been a package deal for the University of Washington football team all along, Armon turned up in the transfer portal on Friday night, according to On3, and he did this alone.
While none of the University of Washington's most recent injured players -- offensive linemen John Mills and Carver Willis, plus edge rusher Zach Durfee -- are expected to play in Friday's night game against Rutgers, help apparently is on the way.
Defensive tackle Jayvon Parker, in a painstaking recovery from an Achilles tendon tear 11 months ago, practiced with the University of Washington football team on Sunday night, though he still hasn't received medical clearance, coach Jedd Fisch said.
Much to their chagrin, Armon and Jayvon Parker have not been identical twins in Montlake at all. Jayvon has appeared in 25 games for the University of Washington football team -- and Armon in none.
Armon Parker might be a fairly talented college football player, much like his twin brother Jayvon, but nobody on the outside knows it just yet. Entering his fourth University of Washington football season, he hasn't appeared in a Husky game -- which is 25 fewer than his sibling.
Entering fall camp, the defensive line remains the most questionable position group for the University of Washington football team. Again, it might be the difference between the Huskies being good or great during the upcoming season.
As the Parker twins each celebrated their 21st birthday on Monday, the creative staff for the University of Washington football team posted photos on social media of the brothers together at practice, in the weight room and at the Sun Bowl to commemorate the moment.
Continuing the string of incredibly bad luck for the University of Washington's football-playing twins, defensive tackle Jayvon Parker suffered an Achilles tendon tear at Rutgers -- and thus joins his brother on the sideline with a season-ending injury.
The outcome of the UW-Rutgers football game was painful enough, but the challenge for injured University of Washington defensive tackle Jayvon Parker to reach the locker room once the game ended seemed like piling on.
Armon Parker, possibly the unluckiest University of Washington football player on the roster, won't play this fall after suffering his second season-ending injury since joining the program three years ago, coach Jedd Fisch confirmed on Thursday.
By 15 pounds, Armon Parker is the heavier of the twins from Detroit who play defensive tackle for the University of Washington football team. He's also a little quicker, according to the previous Husky coaching staff.
He was a Jimmy Lake recruit, a somewhat undersized offensive lineman from Mesa, Arizona, someone who maintained his University of Washington football scholarship offer during the coaching change to Kalen DeBoer when others were let go, yet didn't play a down as a freshman.
