Green Bay Packers pass rusher Micah Parsons is expected to miss the first three to four games of the 2026 season while recovering from his torn left ACL, The Athletic reported Thursday.
Parsons, 26, underwent reconstructive knee surgery on Dec. 29 after sustaining the season-ending injury in a Week 15 loss to the Denver Broncos on Dec. 14.
Parsons finished his first season with the Packers with 12.5 sacks, 41 tackles, 27 quarterback hits and two forced fumbles, making the All-Pro first team for the third time in five seasons.
Green Bay acquired Parsons from the Dallas Cowboys in a stunning trade on Aug. 28, 2025, then signed him to a four-year, $186 million contract extension through 2029.
A five-time Pro Bowl selection, Parsons has recorded 65.0 sacks in 77 games (76 starts) since the Cowboys drafted him with the No. 12 overall pick in 2021. He was the NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2021.
