It seemed like the world stopped when news broke that the Green Bay Packers had acquired Micah Parsons from the Dallas Cowboys—finally, an answer to the less-than-average Packers pass rush. Parsons now has his best shot yet at achieving the one goal that has eluded him: to lead the NFL in sacks.
Of course, not everything is sunshine and rainbows. Parsons came to the Packers with a back injury that could make his first few weeks, if not the season (back injuries being as tricky as they are), more of a struggle than initially expected. And though he’s certainly an elite player, there are still a few items Parsons needs to add to his resume.
