Report: Packers Expect Micah Parsons to Miss First Month of Season

Green Bay lacks proven depth at edge rusher behind Parsons.

Overview

  • Packers insider Matt Schneidman reports Micah Parsons is expected to miss the first three to four games as he finishes ACL rehab.
  • Parsons tore his ACL late last season after Green Bay paid two first-round picks and a starter to trade for him.
  • With Rashan Gary traded and Kingsley Enagbare joining the Jets, the pass-rush group now leans on Lukas Van Ness and several untested backups.
  • Schneidman has suggested veteran options such as Jadeveon Clowney or Leonard Floyd, and Heavy highlighted both as affordable short-term help still on the market.
  • New defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon replaces Jeff Hafley and must design an early plan that holds up without the team’s top edge rusher.
