Micah Parsons will miss Packers’ tilt with Cowboys as ACL rehab continues

Green Bay Packers edge rusher Micah Parsons will miss the upcoming Week 6 matchup against his former team, the Dallas Cowboys, as he continues rehabilitating a torn ACL. Head coach Matt LaFleur confirmed on Monday that Parsons has not yet received medical clearance to return to practice, despite surpassing the required four-week window on the physically unable to perform list.

Parsons suffered the injury on December 14 during a loss to the Denver Broncos, cutting short a 2025 campaign in which he earned Pro Bowl and first-team All-Pro honors with 12.5 sacks. LaFleur emphasized that the team will prioritize balanced leg strength and comprehensive testing before clearing Parsons to return to game action.
