Packers GM Brian Gutekunst on Making Bold Trade (for Micah Parsons)
Sports Illustrated – Green Bay Packers
Micah Parsons’ Green Bay Packers debut could happen Week 1.
The Packers officially listed Parsons as “questionable” for Sunday’s NFC North battle against the Detroit Lions.
Parsons has been dealing with a back injury this offseason that’s diagnosed as an L4/L5 joint sprain.
The good news is Parsons participated in practice on a limit basis this week in preparation for Detroit.
“It’s a process of getting ready for football,” Parsons said, via the team’s official website. “Obviously, going through the tightness, the soreness, but I just got plenty of faith that this great training staff and the coaches are slowly getting me the plays and getting me things that I need if we decide to give me the green light out there.”
The Packers have six other players deemed as questionable on their injury report.
CB Nate Hobbs (knee), WR Jayden Reed (foot), WR Dontayvion Wicks (calf), WR Savion Williams (hamstring), S Zayne Anderson (knee) and DL Barryn Sorrell (knee) are all questionable.
The Lions ruled out LB Trevor Nowaske (elbow), OT Jamarco Jones (ankle) and RB Sione Vaki (hamstring) out for Sunday.
