Micah Parsons has returned to practice, marking the latest checkpoint on the path to his 2026 debut. It remains to be seen when that will take place, but in any event a full workload may not immediately be in store.
Parsons admitted during a recent episode of his podcast that his current conditioning is the worst of his career given the long layoff caused by last year’s ACL tear. Progress has been made since the surgery which included a lateral and medial meniscus repair, although it has proven difficult to pinpoint a return date. Parsons’ 21-day activation window is now open, and the Packers’ Week 12 matchup on Thanksgiving Eve could be the time at which he takes the field.
