Parry Nickerson Bio

Parry Nickerson is an American football cornerback born October 11, 1994, in New Orleans, Louisiana. Listed at 5 feet 10 inches and 182 pounds, he played college football at Tulane after attending West Jefferson High School. A season-ending injury limited his first year with the Green Wave, but he returned to become a multiyear starter in the secondary.

Nickerson earned first-team all-conference recognition and second-team All-America honors following his final season at Tulane. He was also selected as a semifinalist for the 2017 Jim Thorpe Award. His speed and ability to find the football strengthened his draft profile: he ran an official 4.32-second 40-yard dash at the 2018 NFL Scouting Combine, tying for the fastest time at that year's event. Evaluators viewed him as a corner capable of contributing outside or in the slot despite his relatively compact frame.

The New York Jets selected Nickerson in the sixth round with the 179th overall pick of the 2018 NFL Draft. His professional career has included dated affiliations with the Jets, Seattle Seahawks, Jacksonville Jaguars, Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings, Miami Dolphins and Philadelphia Eagles. Philadelphia signed him in June 2024, and his latest verified transaction was a January 6, 2026 signing to the Eagles' practice squad. That transaction establishes his affiliation on that date but does not establish current employment as of September 23, 2026.
