Dallas owner Jerry Jones again compared the Micah Parsons trade to the Herschel Walker deal, saying the extra first-round picks and even Kenny Clark helped spark a more aggressive, makeover-driven approach for Dallas, though Parsons’ move came at the cost of a top defender; he framed the sequence as a Las Vegas–style gamble that reshaped the team.
Kyler Murray appears set to win the Vikings' QB job over J.J. McCarthy, Jahmyr Gibbs' $67.5 million extension signals a revived running back market, Micah Parsons discusses a stronger, rehab-fueled return, Carson Beck sparks a potential Cardinals QB controversy after a standout preseason, and Bears coach Ben Johnson's fiery personality adds NFC North intrigue.
Packers linebacker Micah Parsons said his ACL tear may have been influenced by accumulated wear from playing without training camp, a consequence of skipping camp last year while awaiting a Cowboys contract before being traded to Green Bay. The piece frames this within a broader discussion: while some view in-camp holdouts as risky, the smarter approach is to finalize deals before camp to ensure proper season preparation and transfer some injury risk to teams.
Packers defensive end Micah Parsons is sidelined by a torn ACL. While a Week 6 return against the Cowboys is considered realistic, he says the focus should be on how he plays when back, not the exact date, emphasizing long-term impact over early-season availability.
A Packers training camp preview warns that missing star edge rusher Micah Parsons could derail the season, as the team would struggle to rush the passer with depth questions in the early games, potentially starting 2-5 or 3-4 without him, before a hoped Week 6 return, hinging on LaFleur's ability to adapt and a tougher second-half schedule.
Green Bay opened training camp with six players on the injury/return lists (Brooks on NFI; Kraft, Musgrave, Banks, Hargrave, Hadden on PUP), and then added five more the next day, led by edge rusher Micah Parsons (PUP, torn ACL) and defensive lineman Jordon Riley (PUP, torn Achilles). Also on PUP: Brant Banks, Nazir Stackhouse and long snapper Matt Orzech. Right tackle Zach Tom and defensive lineman Devonte Wyatt are healthy for camp, Kraft is expected to miss the first week or two, and Parsons is projected to miss at least four games of the 2026 season while Riley is unlikely to contribute in 2026. No word yet on Musgrave, the other Banks, Hargrave, Stackhouse or Orzech. Training camp begins Wednesday, with more updates anticipated.
Green Bay moved defensive end Micah Parsons to the physically unable to perform (PUP) list due to a torn ACL, with a return expected no earlier than October. He could later switch to the reserve PUP after the 53-man cut, keeping him out at least four games. The Packers also signed kicker Lenny Krieg and tight end Thomas Yassmin, waived defensive tackle Dante Barnett and kicker Lucas Havrisik, and placed six other players on injury lists who can be activated at any point during training camp.
Green Bay opens training camp with Micah Parsons’ return as the marquee storyline while the Packers map rehab timelines for key players (Kraft, Wyatt, Tom). The piece also weighs Kraft’s extension, the unresolved Josh Jacobs case, and questions across the roster—Will Morgan lock down left tackle? Can Lukas Van Ness finally translate flashes into consistent edge production? Will Matthew Golden and the defense take meaningful steps? All eyes are on how Parsons’ status and the supporting cast shape Green Bay’s 2026 season.
Packers edge rusher Micah Parsons is following a strict nine-month ACL rehab (plus a meniscus procedure), saying he won't rush back and aims to be healthy for the stretch run, with a possible late-season return rather than an early comeback.
Green Bay edge rusher Micah Parsons marks five months since knee surgery and is adhering to the NFL’s nine‑month rule, suggesting a late‑September return at best and a likely absence for early games as he focuses on longevity and a playoff push; he’s also adapting to a new defensive system and leaning on teammates while navigating tough days in rehab.
Houston Texans edge-rusher Will Anderson signed a three-year, $150 million contract with roughly $134 million guaranteed and a no-trade clause, a deal reportedly surpassing Micah Parsons’ prior non-quarterback record by about 8% per year. Parsons’ own deal had strong guarantees (about $123.1 million at signing and $136 million total), and the article notes Parsons has posted more pressures per season (around 83.6) since 2021 than Anderson (about 69), with comparisons to Myles Garrett’s ~80.2. The numbers and guarantees are subject to typical caveats in initial reporting.
Raiders reportedly want a Micah Parsons–like package for Maxx Crosby (two first-round picks plus an impact player), a price ESPN says is currently too steep for teams despite around a dozen clubs showing interest. Crosby, 28, signed a big extension last year and remains under Raiders control through 2028, with the team hoping offseason demand could push the price higher while pursuing a fit that helps them win.
Raiders reportedly want a two‑first‑round pick package plus a player for Maxx Crosby—the same deal Cowboys received for Micah Parsons—an exorbitant price given Crosby’s age, though Raiders GM John Spytek says Crosby is expected to play in 2026 as the team rebuilds.
CeeDee Lamb said George Pickens was recruitable by several players right in front of him at the Pro Bowl, including Micah Parsons, and warned teams that Dallas won’t let Pickens leave. Lamb even suggested he’d take a pay cut to keep his teammate, praising Pickens’ first Dallas season (93 receptions, 1,429 yards, 9 TDs) and signaling Dallas’ intent to re-sign him amid ongoing free‑agency interest.
The NFC erased a 52-36 deficit to beat the AFC 66-52 in the Pro Bowl Games, fueled by Cowboys and Eagles stars, with Hurts and Prescott pairing for multiple TDs, Pickens catching a late score, Bolles emerging as a red-zone threat, Chase delivering a one-handed interception and a 50-yard TD after moonlighting as a safety, and Micah Parsons stealing the show on a rascal scooter; the night also previewed flag football's Olympic debut in L.A. 2028.
