Micah Parsons' Return Uncertain: Packers Waive Practice Window
25 Sep
Summary
- Micah Parsons is recovering from a season-ending knee injury.
- Green Bay has not yet opened his 21-day practice window.
- Parsons cannot return before Week 5; Week 6 is a possibility.
Green Bay Packers' star edge rusher Micah Parsons continues his recovery from a season-ending knee injury sustained in December 2025. He is currently on the reserve/PUP list, requiring him to miss the first four games of the current season. Despite becoming eligible to practice after the second game, the Packers have not yet activated his 21-day practice window.
Head coach Matt LaFleur stated on September 17, 2026, that Parsons might still be a couple of weeks away from returning to practice. The injury, which involved a torn ACL and meniscus damage, required reconstructive surgery on December 29, 2025, and has led to an extended rehabilitation period. His earliest possible return to game action is Week 5, with a Week 6 matchup against his former team, the Dallas Cowboys, on October 18, 2026, being a more realistic target.
