Parsons underwent surgery to repair a torn ACL in his left knee Monday and is facing a ninth-month recovery period, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Rapoport relays that Parsons sustained a clear tear of the ACL in his left knee and that there was no other ligament damage, which will help with the All-Pro pass rusher's time to recovery. The timeline means Parsons likely will miss the opening portion of next season and is a candidate to start it on injured reserve. He sustained the injury Week 15 against the Broncos and finished his first regular season with the Packers with 41 tackles (19 solo), including 12.5 sacks, one pass defense and two forced fumbles across 14 games.

Parsons (knee) announced via his personal social media account Monday that he is undergoing surgery to repair his torn left ACL, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Parsons is expected to miss time early in the 2026 regular season due to the timing of the left ACL tear he suffered Dec. 14, but per a prior report from Demovsky, the star pass rusher could realistically be back in action by Week 4. In any case, with Parsons already on IR, Green Bay will need to rely on a combination of Rashan Gary, Lukas Van Ness and Kingsley Enagbare to provide pressure against opposing quarterbacks for the remainder of the 2025 campaign.

The Packers placed Parsons (ACL) on injured reserve Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Parsons' placement on IR comes after he sustained a season-ending torn left ACL during Green Bay's loss to the Broncos in Week 15. In his inaugural campaign with the Packers, Parsons appeared in 14 regular-season contest and racked up 41 tackles (19 solo) including 12.5 sacks. He also had one pass defensed and two forced fumbles. Rob Demovsky of ESPN reports that Parsons isn't expected to be ready for the start of the 2026 campaign, but it's possible he could miss only the first three games of the regular season based on the usual recovery timetable for Green Bay players who undergo ACL reconstruction procedures.

Parsons (knee) has been confirmed to have suffered a torn left ACL after undergoing an MRI on Monday, NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reports.

EDGE Analysis

Parsons suffered the non-contact injury late in the third quarter of Sunday's loss to the Broncos and now faces a recovery timetable that will sideline him for the remainder of 2025 and could impact his availability for the start of the 2026 campaign. The Packers will now be forced to rely on a combination of Lukas Van Ness, Kingsley Enagbare and Arron Mosby to step up alongside Rashan Gary to account for Parsons' absence, though filling the All-Pro's shoes will be a difficult task. Expect Parsons to be placed on IR in the near future as he turns his attention toward making a full recovery for 2026.

Adam Schefter of ESPN relays that Parsons may have suffered a torn ACL during the Packers' 34-26 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Parsons went to the locker room late in the third quarter after suffering a non-contact injury to his left knee. He'll undergo further tests to determine the exact severity of the injury, but if the ACL tear is confirmed, then the fifth-year pro will be sidelined for the rest of the 2025 season and could miss the start of the 2026 campaign. Lukas Van Ness, Kingsley Enagbare, Arron Mosby and Rashan Gary will need to take on larger roles on defense in Parsons' absence.

Parsons is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Broncos due to a left knee injury.

EDGE Analysis

Parsons suffered a non-contact injury to his left knee late in the third quarter while pursuing Bo Nix on a pass rush. Parsons had to be helped off the field and into the locker room, and while he hasn't been ruled out, it seems unlikely that the All-Pro pass rusher will return to Sunday's game. Assuming Parsons is done for the day, Lukas Van Ness and Kingsley Enagbare are slated for more snaps at defensive end opposite starter Rashan Gary.

Parsons finished Sunday's 28-21 victory against Chicago with one assisted tackle and two QB hits.

EDGE Analysis

Parsons reached Chicago QB Caleb Williams on two occasions, but he wasn't able to extend his sack streak to three games. The talented pass rusher still has a good chance of surpassing his career-best regular-season mark of 14.0 sacks, as he's at 12.5 sacks with four games left on the schedule.

Parsons logged eight tackles (four solo), including 2.5 sacks, three tackles for a loss and four QB hits during the Packers' 31-21 win over the Lions on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

It was another big day for Parsons, who has logged at least 1.5 sacks for a third straight game and the fourth time this season. His first takedown of Jared Goff came in the first quarter in combination with Kingsley Enagbare, resulting in a six-yard loss. Parsons added two solo sacks on Goff in the fourth quarter, both resulting in eight-yard losses as the All-Pro pass rusher's efforts helped limit the Lions' offensive output in the second half. Parsons is now up to 12.5 sacks through 12 regular-season games, and he is close to matching his career-high output as a member of the Cowboys during the 2023 campaign (14.0 sacks across 17 regular-season games). Next up for Parsons and the Packers is another NFC North clash in Week 14 against the Bears on Sunday, Dec. 7.

Parsons (pectoral) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Vikings, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Parsons has been dealing with a pectoral injury for the past few weeks but was a full participant in practice Friday for the first time since Week 10 this season. The 26-year-old will make his 11th start of the season Sunday versus Minnesota.

Parsons (pectoral) recorded a limited practice session Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

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. As such, Parsons should be expected to suit up Sunday versus Minnesota provided he practices in some capacity again Friday.
