http://miamiherald.typepad.com/dolphins_in_depth/2016/08/dolphins-trying-to-get-devante-parker-to-be-a-professional.html

Read the article above...Parker doesn't eat right, doesn't hydrate, doesn't practice hard, and constantly gets nagging injuries. WTF??? Is this guy for real? He's getting paid tons of money to be a professional athlete, but he's acting like he's still in high school. I'm glad Gase called him out - time to start acting like a football player and not a lazy primadonna.

I don't know...for all the talent this guy has, I just have a bad feeling about him. It seems like he plays much softer than advertised and from all I keep hearing I'm not sure he really wants to be a football player. I guess we'll see if this coaching staff can turn his career around, because right now the production isn't matching the hype.

i think the coaches can get on him all they want and have a nutritionist follow him around like a baby, but in the end it will be up to him to mature and decide he really wants to a professional. unfortunately, there is no guarantee that will even happen.

i'm also curious to know if any of the veterans push him to be more responsible? Maybe Landry or Stills could help kick his ass in gear - or maybe they're too occupied worrying about themselves.

Sounds like someone needs to teach him how to take care of himself. The NFL is tougher than college and the pain is going to be worst so he needs to do better.

Sounds like he'll end up a reclamation project for the Bengals or someone.
