Green Bay Packers superstar pass rusher Micah Parsons suffered a season-ending ACL tear during Week 15 of the 2025 season. He's currently on the road to recovery, and will miss the start of his team's 2026 regular-season campaign.

"Green Bay is known as one of the most conservative teams medically in the NFL. But there is optimism that he’ll be back Week 6 against his old team, the Cowboys, and potentially even Week 5 against the Bears," Pelissero reported.
The Packers will open up their 2026 regular-season campaign with a Week 1 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. Then, Parsons will miss Green Bay's next three games against the New York Jets, Atlanta Falcons and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
