The Green Bay Packers will be without edge rusher Micah Parsons for their Week 10 home game against the Minnesota Vikings. Parsons took part in limited practices during the week, including a bull rush against tight end Tucker Kraft on Thursday, but the team listed him as out on Friday.
Parsons, a former Dallas Cowboy and four-time All-Pro, will miss at least 10 games and 11 weeks of the 2026 season. Before the season began, he was expected to be sidelined for four to six weeks. Green Bay placed him on injured reserve to start the season.
## When Could Micah Parsons Return?
Parsons could return as early as Week 12, after the Packers’ Week 11 bye. Green Bay designated him for return before Week 9, meaning he must be added to the roster ahead of Week 12. That makes the team’s November 25 game against the Los Angeles Rams a possible date for his debut, though his return for that matchup has not been confirmed.
For Week 10, the Packers will rely on Barryn Sorrell and Dani Dennis-Sutton. Lukas Van Ness could also be available, but he was listed as questionable. Other Packers listed as questionable were Chris Brooks, Javon Bullard, Travis Glover, Xavier McKinney, Skyy Moore and Kevin Zeitler. Zaire Franklin was listed as doubtful, while Josh Jacobs, Sean Rhyan and Josh Whyle were also ruled out. Everyone else was off the injury report.
