Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur provides an injury update on Micah Parsons ahead of NFL Week 9, saying the team’s intention is for Parsons to return to practice this week. Multiple outlets report that the plan marks a potential first time he practices since an ACL tear, with the timing framed as the key development for his return.

Across coverage, the focus remains on whether Parsons can move from rehab to on-field work during the first full week of the month. Yahoo Sports and Newsweek both highlight LaFleur’s encouraging remarks, while The Athletic emphasizes that the practice would come for the first time since the ACL injury. Yardbarker adds additional caution, noting that even if he practices, an in-game return date is less certain and could remain fluid.
