Outside Linebacker · Green Bay Packers

Micah Parsons

No. 1 · 6th season

Parsons wasn't on the list Monday. He will be Tuesday.

Training camp is supposed to be the moment everything snaps into focus. For Micah Parsons and the Green Bay Packers, it's starting with a delay.

Parsons is an outside linebacker — the kind of player a defense is built around. He wasn't among the five Green Bay players placed on the physically-unable-to-perform list when camp opened, which is essentially a holding area for players not yet cleared to practice. He was expected to be added Tuesday.

Missing early camp isn't a verdict on a season, but it does mean less time on the field while everyone else is getting their footing. For a player whose presence changes what a defense can do, every practice day has weight.

The question now isn't whether Parsons is good enough. It's when we actually get to see it.
