After three intense practices, Micah Parsons has yet to experience setbacks with his back injury. However, the key Packers player must overcome some obstacles before confirming his debut in the first game of the season against the Lions. Parsons, who passed the physical tests to complete his transfer last week, continues with the treatments started in his previous team.
A crucial factor was his participation in Wednesday’s full-equipment practice, the first since last season.I’m still in the recovery process. It’s a process to be ready for football. After being out for six months, obviously, I feel tension and pain, but I have a lot of faith that the excellent training staff and coaches are gradually giving me the plays and the things I need if they decide to give me the green light. Although, the final decision is up to the coaches.

Parsons is willing to receive an injection to relieve back pain, if necessary.I think he was able to do what we had planned for him today. So he’s doing a good job.
Matt LaFleur, Coach
Despite being new to the Packers, Parsons seems to have integrated perfectly, especially with regard to NFC North rivalries.We’ll see what happens. For now, we take the steroid pack I got last week and start using it while receiving treatment there… We finished the pack and hope it works, in addition to the treatment, so I can be 100 percent.

Parsons also praised Lukas Van Ness and his defensive line teammates.I felt like Dallas and Detroit already had a rivalry. I already have that rivalry built up and I’m excited to play against them. I never liked Detroit. I never liked them. Even when I was in Dallas, it was always a heavyweight fight whenever they came… I’m excited to play against them, I’m very excited and it’s going to last the 12 or 15 rounds.

Also, Parsons was impressed by the number of players he saw at the team’s facilities on Tuesday, a day off for the players.I really like how he plays. He plays well against the run, rises vertically very well. I know I can count on him for a power attack. Just understanding and learning people’s playing styles, I really like how everyone has been practicing. Even some of the interior guys, even though they lost Kenny [Clark], you can tell it really helped them a lot.

Defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley commented that his mind started to “work at 100 miles per hour” thinking about how to use Parsons, but he didn’t offer any hints about his plans. Quarterback Jordan Love shared his vision for Parsons, including for Sunday’s presentations. The crowd will go wild, I can see it. I can see it. The defense comes out first. Get a three and out. Micah gets a sack on third down. I can see it. I can see it.I came on Tuesday to receive treatment and saw almost all the guys in the locker room. I said, ‘This is the first time I’ve seen this.’ And that shows how much these guys want to be here.

I haven’t imagined that yet, but I love a prophet. As long as he’s praying and praying well, I’ll accept that prophecy, for sure. I’ll accept it.
