Micah Parsons Shares Two-Week ACL Rehab Update as Packers Chase Playoff Berth

The Pro Bowl pass rusher described the early grind of recovery following his Week 15 knee tear.

Overview

  • Parsons posted on Christmas Day that he has accepted the pain of rehab and vowed not to quit until he returns, sharing the update two weeks into recovery.
  • He tore his ACL on a non-contact play against the Broncos in Week 15, and coach Matt LaFleur said earlier this week that surgery had not yet occurred but is expected.
  • In 14 games in his first Green Bay season, Parsons logged 12.5 sacks and earned his fifth straight Pro Bowl selection.
  • Green Bay is 9-5-1 without its defensive centerpiece and will host the Ravens on Saturday, with QB Jordan Love still in the concussion protocol after Week 16.
  • Parsons arrived in a blockbuster trade with Dallas and signed a four-year, $188 million deal that made him the highest-paid non-quarterback.
