Fans welcome Micah Parsons onto the field for his first snap as a Green Bay Packers with energetic cheers that filled Lambeau Field.
His first game post-trade from the Dallas Cowboys was anticipated, despite the former Penn State linebacker listed as questionable ahead of Sunday. While his back left him out for six months without a real, full practice, he had limited participation before Week 1's kickoff. This was enough for the Packers to roll him out in the rotation fluidly. Green Bay told CBS Sports that it planned on easing him into the action, since keeping him off the field entirely would be nearly impossible as Parsons was itching to play after an emotional rollercoaster of an offseason.
