Packers Aim for Week 12 Return of Micah Parsons

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur expressed hope that defensive end Micah Parsons will begin practicing with the team next week. Reports indicate that the team is aiming for Week 12 for Parsons's return to game action.

Parsons has been sidelined since tearing his ACL last season, and if he resumes practice next week, it would initiate a 21-day window for him to prepare for activation. The Packers are scheduled to play against the Los Angeles Rams on November 25, marking the NFL's first Thanksgiving Eve game.

Following a recent victory over the Panthers, the Packers will face the Patriots and Vikings before their bye week in Week 11. If Parsons returns as planned, he would be available for the final seven games of the regular season, potentially enhancing the team's playoff prospects.
