Micah Parsons Suffers Torn ACL, Ending Season
Green Bay Packers defensive end Micah Parsons has been confirmed to have torn his left ACL during the team’s 34-26 loss to the Denver Broncos on December 14. The injury occurred in the third quarter when Parsons was in pursuit of Broncos quarterback Bo Nix. An MRI confirmed the tear, ruling Parsons out for the remainder of the 2025 season. He is expected to face a recovery period of at least nine months.
Parsons, 26, joined the Packers in August after a trade with the Dallas Cowboys. In his first season with Green Bay, he recorded 12.5 sacks, making him the first player in NFL history to achieve at least 12 sacks in each of his first five seasons. Following the injury, Parsons expressed resilience and gratitude for the support from the Packers organization and his teammates.
Background on Micah Parsons
Micah Parsons was acquired by the Green Bay Packers from the Dallas Cowboys in August 2025. Prior to the trade, Parsons had a standout career with the Cowboys, earning multiple Pro Bowl selections and All-Pro honors. His addition to the Packers was seen as a significant boost to their defensive lineup. The injury marks the first major setback of Parsons’ NFL career, as he had been remarkably durable since entering the league in 2021, missing only four games last season due to an ankle issue.
