Green Bay Packers pass rusher Micah Parsons is preparing to return to the NFL field as he continues to recover from the ACL tear that ended his 2025 season.

While an exact target date for Parsons' return has not yet been revealed, the three-time First Team All-Pro superstar expects to be back and better than ever in his second campaign with Green Bay.

"The anger, the frustration, the things that I'm going to have to let out because of how long it's been since I played … that's what people should really worry about," Parsons said, via the team's official website. "Like, how great is Micah going to be when he gets back? Not about when I get back."

Parsons recently said it's "realistic" that he could be back on the field before the Packers' Sunday Night Football matchup against his former Dallas Cowboys team in Week 6. However, he wouldn't commit to a target date.

"We're right where we should be," Parsons said. "As a training staff and myself, we're excited and happy where I'm at and just excited to keep working."

The Packers will open up their 2026 regular-season schedule with a Week 1 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings on Sept. 13.
