Is he now? I believe he played for Germany in an U-21 Euro qualifier. The U21 Euros are the qualifiers for the Olympics, so he might be unable to play for us in the main tournament. http://www.uefa.com/under21/season=...12/match=2011497/postmatch/lineups/index.html
Potential Deutsche Yank Parker to miss a month, ACL scare (Ger) » Kreuzbandriss: Augsburg monatelang ohne Parker http://t.co/5QfMelOxPm— Phil Schoen (@PhilSchoen) May 26, 2015
Google Translate: FC Augsburg will be without in the coming months on offensive players Shawn Parker.The 22-year-old suffered at Augsburg 3: a torn ACL -victory at Borussia Mönchengladbach on Saturday: 1 (1: 0).This was announced by the club on Tuesday, without giving further details of the planned treatment."The injury is very bitter for me. But I'm looking forward," Parker said.
Tough luck for Parker. Here's his Bundesliga minutes (and goals). 2012-13: 821 (3) 2013-14: 381 (1) 2014-15: 170 (0) He's only scored one goal at the Bundesliga or Regionalliga level in the last two seasons. Hasn't been trending in the right direction, even before any ACL business.

Latest news I could find, from Nov: Parker runs again http://www.kicker.de/news/fussball/...60/artikel_parker-und-hong-laufen-wieder.html
He did indeed return to training in late January. Sounds like he is nearing his return to the squad and has been added to FCA's Europa League squad. http://www.augsburger-allgemeine.de...Einsatz-gegen-Bayern-unsicher-id36920862.html
Shawn Parker comes on at the end of the 2nd leg EL round of 32 match against Liverpool to make his first appearance of the season.
Scored a goal as a sub for the 2nd team in the Regionalliga Bayern. http://www.kicker.de/news/fussball/...jahn-regensburg-1377_fc-augsburg-ii-9056.html
Happy Birthday, Shawn #Parker! The #FCA player turns 23 today. All the best! pic.twitter.com/CJ4z5N7JAs— FC Augsburg (@FCA_World) March 7, 2016
It would be nice if he could get back to playing in the BL. By the way, he played 60 minutes and scored another goal for the II team. http://www.kicker.de/news/fussball/...ugsburg-ii-9056_1-fc-schweinfurt-05-1296.html
He just looks like he belongs on the USMNT, based only on that single photo. He's like another lost Jonas brother.
sorry, only room for one lost Jonas brother: http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/fourth-jonas/n12438
Played the second half for FC Augsburg in a friendly vs. newly promoted Eredivisie side Sparta Rotterdam; nearly scored twice but the match ended 0-0. Augsburg brought in Icelandic striker Alfred Finnbogason on loan from Real Sociedad, and brought back Slovenian striker Tim Matavz from a loan to Genoa. The starters are still Paraguayan Raul Bobadilla and South Korean Dong-Won Ji. So I wouldn't expect Parker to get many chances (I hope I'm wrong). Maybe he'll go back down to Augsburg II, if he is eligible to. http://www.kicker.de/news/fussball/..._fca-gegen-sparta-rotterdam-endet-torlos.html
