It didn’t take long for the newest Kansas City Chief to acclimate himself back the routine he’s known for most of his professional career.

Veteran safety Ron Parker, who had spent the past five years roaming the Chiefs’ defensive backfield, was re-signed this week after being recently released by the Atlanta Falcons, where he had spent this past offseason and preseason after being released by the Chiefs last Spring.

Upon his return to the organization which first gave him a chance to really show what he could do at this level—initially coming over to the Chiefs as a waiver-wire pickup from the Seattle Seahawks before the start of the 2013 season, it didn’t take long for Parker to feel right back at home.

“When I came in the building the very first day, I had the young guys already asking me questions about the defense,” Parker laughed. “So, I’m opening up to the guys and giving them my phone number. I let them know that they can call me anytime if they have a question and that we can sit down and go over stuff.”

Parker would be the guy to ask, too. He has played everywhere in this defense — from outside at cornerback, to the slot, and over the past couple of years, he’s settled in as an interchangeable safety.
