Overview
- Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that Parsons will not practice this week as he continues to recover from the December ACL reconstruction and meniscus work.
- LaFleur added that Parsons has "made some good progress" and is "working his butt off to be out there," and the team says he has not suffered a rehabilitation setback.
- Parsons remains on the reserve/physically unable to perform list and must be formally designated by the Packers to start a 21-day practice window before he can rejoin team practices.
- Outside reporting from The Ringer’s Tom Pelissero says Parsons may not be ready for game action until November, making a previously discussed mid-October return — including an Oct. 18 game against the Cowboys — increasingly unlikely.
- Parsons averaged 12.5 sacks and 27 quarterback hits in 14 games in 2025, and his delayed availability matters because his absence leaves Green Bay without its premier edge rusher during a key early-season schedule.
