- His usage has climbed from 45 percent of defensive snaps in Week 1 to 68 percent in Week 2, with further increases under consideration.
- On limited snaps through two games, he has recorded 1.5 sacks, a tackle for loss and multiple quarterback hits.
- Green Bay’s defense ranks among the NFL’s early leaders, allowing about 238 yards per game, third fewest through two weeks.
- Matt LaFleur offered a noncommittal “We’ll see” on unleashing Parsons this week as the pass rusher signals he expects to be full go by month’s end, ahead of a Week 4 trip to Dallas.
