Overview
- Multiple outlets reported Monday that Green Bay does not expect Micah Parsons to practice this week ahead of the Sunday night game against the Dallas Cowboys.
- Head coach Matt LaFleur said Parsons has not suffered a rehab setback but has not received the medical green light to rejoin team practice.
- The Packers have not opened Parsons’ 21-day practice window, a league procedure that must begin after medical clearance and gives the team up to three weeks to evaluate him in practice before activation.
- Insiders still hold guarded hope for an October return while other reporting says a November comeback remains realistic, making the next milestones formal clearance, the start of the practice window, and game-ready practice reps.
- Parsons’ timing matters for Green Bay’s pass rush because the team has already lost key defenders to season-ending Achilles injuries and needs practice reps to safely return him to game action.
