Micah Parsons went from looking like his had a chance to return for Week 1, to some suggestions putting his timeline more like mid-season. What is the truth, or at least as close as we can come?
The Packers, like always, are going to be super conservative with Parsons' comeback. I expect him to miss at least half the season and they may keep him in mothballs until December so that he is ready for postseason playoff games ... especially if the team's edge rushers have a decent season leading up to that. If the Packers implode and have no chance of making the playoffs, Parsons won't play at all. They will save him for 2027.
