Micah Parsons injury update: Packers receive terrible news after loss to Broncos

Micah Parsons is likely to be sidelined for the remainder of the season. Following the most recent report on his injury sustained during the Green Bay Packers‘ loss to the Denver Broncos, it is feared to be a severe knee injury.

NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport reported on X: “Packers edge Micah Parsons, believed to have suffered a torn ACL, finished his season with 12.5 sacks and a significant piece of one of the NFL’s best defenses. But his injury knocks him out for the end of the regular season and beyond.”

Regarding the Parsons injury and its potential benefit to the Bears, Jacob Infante of Windy City Gridiron stated on X: “I feel bad for Micah Parsons on a human level for his injury. Never good to see guys get hurt. I don’t give a s— about how it pertains to the Bears, their playoff chances, or their game next week. Playoffs are on the line. None of this ‘beat them at their best’ c—.”

Packers lose another player to ACL tear

Parsons is not the only Packers player with a torn ACL. It’s worth remembering that Tucker Kraft had already suffered the same injury in November, making him an important starter for the team.

Furthermore, during the same game against the Broncos where Parsons was injured, it is suspected that other players may have also suffered injuries, including Christian Watson, Zach Tom, and Quay Walker, according to information shared by SleeperPackers.

Packers edge rusher Rashan Gary spoke about the potential season-ending injury for Parsons, saying, “I told him to keep his head up, and we’re going to finish strong for him,” in a message also intended to encourage his other teammates.

Packers’ playoff situation

Currently, the Packers, with a 9-4-1 record, have an 88% playoff probability. This is strong, as they are the second-best team in the NFC North. They still have games scheduled against the Bears, Ravens, and Vikings. It is highly probable that they will at least secure a Wild Card spot.
