What happened: The Green Bay Packers edge rusher cracked the top 10 of the NFL Top 100 Players of 2026. The league is unveiling one top-10 selection each weekday.

Why it matters: The placement recognizes Parsons as one of the NFL’s premier players entering the 2026 season. He gives Green Bay a top-10 representative in the player-voted ranking.

By the numbers: Parsons recorded 12.5 sacks, 27 quarterback hits and 83 pressures in 2025. He became the only player since 1982 with at least 12 sacks in each of his first five seasons.

What to watch: Seven higher placements remain in the countdown.
