Micah Parsons, a pass rusher for the Green Bay Packers, is on track to return for the 2026 NFL season after suffering a torn ACL in Week 15 of the previous season. His former defensive coordinator, Jeff Hafley, now head coach of the Miami Dolphins, boldly predicted that Parsons could return even stronger and potentially break the single-season sack record of 23, set by Myles Garrett in 2025. Despite Parsons' impressive stats of 12.5 sacks, 26 quarterback hits, and 41 tackles in 2025, uncertainty surrounds his return timeline. While Parsons has expressed optimism about being ready for the season opener, reports suggest he might miss the first three to four games. His recovery is reportedly progressing faster than expected, but the Packers have yet to confirm a specific return date.
