Micah Parsons’ injury worry emerges — and it could delay his Packers debut
It seems a fully healthy Micah Parsons was not traded away from the Cowboys last week.
Following the star linebacker’s departure from Dallas and a four-year, $188 million contract agreement with the Packers, Parsons may not be available Week 1 due to a L4/L5 facet joint sprain in his back, according to multiple reports on Monday.
The four-time Pro Bowler may take an epidural injection ahead of the Packers’ season opener against the Lions if needed to help his availability.


Prior to the trade, the Cowboys reportedly had Parsons on a physical therapy program and prescribed him a five-day plan of an anti-Inflammatory corticosteroid, which is a prednisone to help aid back tightness.
He has been practicing this week leading up to home opener, but one source told ESPN it’s uncertain if Parsons will play.
