Micah Parsons Has ACL Surgery, Nine-Month Rehab Expected

Green Bay opens the postseason as the No. 7 seed without its top pass rusher following a clean tear repaired on Monday.

Overview

  • Parsons shared a hospital-bed photo Monday and later said his ACL procedure was successful, posting, “Today went amazing.”
  • He tore the ligament on December 14 against the Broncos, ending his first season in Green Bay.
  • NFL Network reporting described the injury as a clean tear with an approximate nine-month recovery timeline.
  • The Packers have dropped three straight, their pass rush has dipped, and they will start the playoffs on the road as the No. 7 seed.
  • Before the injury, Parsons logged 12.5 sacks and 48 pressures after arriving in an August trade from Dallas and signing a $186 million extension through 2029.
