There’s no doubt about it; The vibes among Packers fans have plummeted in recent weeks. But if you’re like me — that is to say, chronically looking for something positive to hold on to — here’s some decent
news: Micah Parsons’ road to recovery has finally begun in earnest.
After undergoing surgery to repair the torn ACL that ended his 2025 season, Micah Parsons chimed in to offer cheeseheads a hopeful sign. In a message shared on social media following his procedure, he said “today went amazing!!! LFG!!,” signaling a successful surgery and marking the first tangible milestone in what will certainly be a lengthy rehab process.
I know that’s not exactly a detailed timeline offered by Parsons’ camp, but pardon me for seeking optimism for the future at this point. Experts generally agree that recovery from an ACL repair takes about nine months, which suggests Parsons could miss the early portion of next season.
In addition to the physical hurdles, Parsons has been pretty candid about the emotional and mental challenges of working through his injury, posting thoughtful reflections on the ups and downs of his journey back on social media.
The Packers appear to be bringing a spoon to a knife fight in this year’s playoffs. That’s all the more reason for me to set my eyes on future milestones and the potential achievements of 2026. ‘Tis the season for that, I guess.
