Micah Parsons injury update: Will Packers’ star play Sunday Week 1 vs. Lions?

The Packers made a major swing to trade for Micah Parsons ahead of the 2025 NFL season, and he’ll debut for the organization in Week 1 against the Lions.

Parsons, a two-time All-Pro linebacker, will rep the green on Sunday, but won’t have a full workload, according to ESPN’s Rob Demovsky.

While Parsons is all set to debut for the Packers, his availability is still limited due to a back injury. He will play, but not at his typical capacity. He had been dealing with this issue while with the Cowboys and had missed some practices this offseason because of it.

Parsons practiced all four days this week but was not a full participant in any of them.
