Rotowire
Parsons (pectoral) recorded a limited practice session Thursday.
Parsons has been dealing with the pec injury for the last few weeks. He has been limited in each practice since Week 10, but that hasn't resulted in him missing any game action.

Packers' Micah Parsons: Ends sack drought in Week 11
Rotowire
Parsons recorded six total tackles (one solo), including 1.5 sacks, and one forced fumble in Sunday's 27-20 win over the Giants.
The All-Pro edge rusher went without a sack in each of his last two games prior to Sunday's win. He got after Jameis Winston in the second half and even notched a strip-sack on the last play of the game. Through his first 10 games in Green Bay, Parsons has now recorded 28 total tackles, including 8.0 sacks (tied for the seventh most in the NFL), and one forced fumble. Parson next sets his sights on the struggling J.J. McCarthy in a Week 12 divisional clash against the Vikings.

Packers' Micah Parsons: Estimated as limited Wednesday
Rotowire
Parsons (pectoral) was limited on Wednesday's estimated practice report.
Parsons was limited by the pectoral issue in practice last week but didn't have an injury designation ahead of Monday night's loss to the Eagles and played his normal allotment of snaps on defense, producing just two tackles (one solo) on 84 percent of the downs. Parsons has recorded 22 tackles (11 solo), including 6.5 sacks, and 14 QB hits on 75 percent of the defensive snaps across nine games in his first season with Green Bay.

Packers' Micah Parsons: Good to go Week 10
Rotowire
Parsons (pectoral) does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Eagles, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Parson logged a trio of limited practices while tending to a pectoral injury, but the fifth-year pass rusher has been cleared to play in Week 10. Parsons has logged 6.5 sacks through eight regular-season games, which is second most on the Packers behind Rashan Gary (7.5) and 10th most in the NFL.

Packers' Micah Parsons: Picks up another sack
Rotowire
Parsons recorded one solo tackle, including 1.0 sacks, during Green Bay's win over the Steelers on Sunday.
Parsons has now brought his sack total to 6.5 across seven regular-season appearances with Green Bay. That total puts him at sixth in the league, trailing teammate Rashan Gary (7.5 sacks). Parsons will have a chance to add to his impressive numbers Week 9 at home against the Panthers. Bryce Young (ankle) could have his mobility hampered if cleared to suit up, and veteran backup Andy Dalton looked overwhelmed while taking seven sacks versus Buffalo in Week 8.

Packers' Micah Parsons: Racks up three sacks
Rotowire
Parsons recorded five tackles (four solo) and a career-high 3.0 sacks in Sunday's 27-23 victory over the Cardinals.
Parsons had registered 2.0 or 2.5 sacks on several occasions, but he had never before taken down the quarterback three times himself until his sixth game with the Packers. Thanks to the surge Parsons is up to 5.5 sacks, which ties him for sixth in the league with two games to go in Week 7.

Packers' Micah Parsons: Sacks Prescott in return to Dallas
Rotowire
Parsons tallied three tackles (one solo), including 1.0 sacks, during Green Bay's 40-40 tie to Dallas on Sunday.
Parsons was able to overcome a lingering back injury to play Sunday against the team that selected him in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft. He was quiet for most of the night, but he was credited for a crucial sack on Dak Prescott while the Cowboys were in the red zone, which led to a Brandon Aubrey 22-yard field goal two plays later. The Packers are on a bye for Week 5, so the extra week off should help Parsons with his back issue that stemmed from training camp. He's up to 2.5 sacks through four games, and he'll look to add to that total in the Packers' Week 6 tilt against the Bengals on Sunday, Oct. 12.

Packers' Micah Parsons: Limited to open week
Rotowire
Parsons (back) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday.
Parsons recorded two solo tackles in the team's 13-10 loss to the Browns in Week 3, and he may have exacerbated his previous back injury in the contest. The defensive lineman will have two more opportunities to log a full practice prior to Sunday night's matchup with the Cowboys.

Packers' Micah Parsons: Sees increased work vs. Washington
Rotowire
Parsons logged two assisted tackles, including 0.5 sacks, during the Packers' 27-18 win over the Commanders on Thursday.
Parsons was limited to just 30 defensive snaps in his Packers debut against the Lions this past Sunday due to a lingering back issue. He was cleared to play Thursday and saw an uptick in playing time, seeing the field for 47 snaps on defense. He combined with Edgerrin Cooper on a 10-yard sack on Jayden Daniels early in the third quarter, and Parsons led both teams with three QB hits. The addition of Parsons has fortified the Packers' defense, which has yielded just 31 points over the first two games of the regular season against teams who made the NFC playoffs in 2024. The Packers' next contest takes place Sunday, Sept. 21 against the Browns in Cleveland, and the additional rest should help Parsons in seeing his snap count on defense increase for a second straight week.

Packers' Micah Parsons: Suiting up again
Rotowire
Parsons (back) is listed as active Thursday against the Commanders, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
The Packers continue to take a cautious approach with Parsons' back injury, listing him as limited on all three practice reports for a second consecutive week. Now that he again has received the all clear for game action, his workload will be of interest just four days removed from earning 30 of 67 defensive snaps (45 percent) in a Week 1 win versus the Lions. While Washington QB Jayden Daniels is noted for his mobility, Parsons notched 4.5 sacks of him in six quarters of play in two matchups between the Cowboys and Commanders during the 2024 season.

Packers' Micah Parsons: Status in question for Week 2
Rotowire
Parsons (back) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game versus the Commanders, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
For a second week in a row to begin his tenure with the Packers, Parsons' status technically is up in the air for game action, but he still suited up for his debut with the team this past Sunday against the Lions and recorded his first sack in Green and Gold. His status will be confirmed, one way or another, about 90 minutes before Thursday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff.

Packers' Micah Parsons: In line for Packers debut
Rotowire
Parsons (back), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions, is expected to suit up, but his snap count will be monitored, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
In his first full week of practice with his new team, Parsons was a limited participant in each session as he continues to manage the back injury that plagued him since the early days of training camp as a member of the Cowboys, Now with the Packers and with a four-year, $188 million extension in hand, he predictably won't be deployed as he normally will be, not only due to his health concern but the fact he's been in Green Bay for a little more than a week. Still, Parsons at the very least will be a part of the Packers' pass rush Sunday.

Packers' Micah Parsons: Still limited at practice
Rotowire
Coach Matt LaFleur said Parsons (back) remained limited at Thursday's practice, Zach Kruse of USA Today reports.
Per Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com, LaFleur added that the Packers' training staff didn't need to adjust its plan for Parsons after he also was limited at Wednesday's padded practice. Since Parsons was traded from Dallas to Green Bay last Thursday, it's been revealed that he's been tending to a joint sprain in his back, which spurred his former team to order up a five-day plan of an anti-inflammatory corticosteroid prior to the deal. Despite Parsons still being hampered by the injury, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported earlier Thursday that the pass rusher is expected to be available for Sunday's season opener against the Lions, though it what capacity remains to be seen.

Packers' Micah Parsons: Still nursing back injury
Rotowire
Parsons is managing a joint sprain in his back and may require an epidural injection in order to play in Sunday's season opener versus the Lions, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
The Cowboys had reportedly prescribed Parsons a five-day plan of an anti-inflammatory corticosteroid before the team traded him to Green Bay on Thursday in exchange for two future first-round picks and defensive tackle Kenny Clark. While Parsons has practiced since arriving to the Packers' facilities and is pushing to play Week 1, his availability for the season opener isn't fully guaranteed. As such, Parsons' listings on the Packers' three injury reports this week will be worth monitoring closely to get a sense of his chances of suiting up Sunday.

Packers' Micah Parsons: Traded to GB, gets massive deal
Rotowire
Parsons is being traded to Green Bay from Dallas and has agreed to terms with the Packers on a four-year, $188 million dollar contract extension, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Parsons gets a massive new extension and becomes the immediate leader of Green Bay's pass rush, in a deal done just over one week in advance of the Packers' regular-season opener against Detroit. The three-time All-Pro will provide an immediate boost to his new team, and the full details regarding Dallas' trade compensation will follow shortly.

Cowboys' Micah Parsons: Day-to-day due to back injury
Rotowire
Parsons (back) is day-to-day, head coach Brian Schottenheimer said Friday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Parsons wasn't on the field Thursday because he was getting some work done on his back. The star pass rusher has yet to take part in practice or drills in camp while embroiled in a contract dispute, and his status for Week 1 will grow increasingly uncertain the longer it takes the Cowboys to reach an agreement with him on an extension.

Cowboys' Micah Parsons: Misses practice
Rotowire
Parsons (back) wasn't on the practice field Thursday, ESPN's Todd Archer reports.
It was his first absence of training camp, with Parsons having been a fixture on the sidelines, although not participating in actual drills or practices, since announcing a trade request on social media last Friday. He's scheduled to play out 2025 under the fifth-year option of his rookie contract for $24 million, while fellow pass rushers Myles Garrett and T.J. Watt have secured extensions this offseason in the range of $40 million per season. Parsons remains with the team, not wanting to face fines, and it is possible Thursday's absence wasn't solely about the back injury. He did miss practices with the same back injury during the offseason program, however, and Cowboys owner/GM Jerry Jones has mentioned the edge rusher's ability to stay healthy being a factor in negotiations. Multiple reports have suggested that Jones doesn't want to negotiate with Parsons' agent because he believes the two reached a verbal agreement back in March. It's a situation that could get ugly, if it hasn't already, with Jones acknowledging recently that he doesn't know if Parsons will be on the field Week 1 against Philadelphia.

Cowboys' Micah Parsons: Availability uncertain
Rotowire
Parsons (back/contract) is uncertain to play Week 1 against the Eagles, Clarence Hill Jr. of AllDLLS.com reports.
Parsons has been outspoken about his displeasure with Dallas, even announcing that he has requested a trade Friday. Owner Jerry Jones addressed the media Tuesday, stating that nobody in the front office has contacted Parsons' agent, and that he hasn't spoken to Parsons since his trade request. With less than a month until the Cowboys face the Eagles in the NFL's regular season opener Thursday, Sept. 4, it doesn't seem like the two sides are particularly close to a resolution.

Cowboys' Micah Parsons: Wants out of Dallas
Rotowire
Parsons (back) requested a trade from the Cowboys on Friday via his personal X account.
In particular, Parsons' statement included the following: "Unfortunately, I no longer want to be here. ... I no longer want to play for the Dallas Cowboys." In an offseason in which fellow edge rushers Myles Garrett and T.J. Watt landed new extensions worth at least $40 million per year, Parsons and the Cowboys don't appear to be engaging in similar talks. Parsons is set to play out the fifth-year option on his rookie contract in 2025, which carries a salary of $24 million.
