What happened: Packers head coach Matt LaFleur confirmed Wednesday that Micah Parsons has been fully cleared to participate in individual drills. The session marks the edge rusher's first on-field work since December following a knee injury.

Why it matters: Green Bay is targeting a game return on Thanksgiving Eve against the Los Angeles Rams. Getting Parsons back strengthens the defensive front as the Packers look to maintain momentum following a 27-19 win over the Carolina Panthers.

By the numbers: Parsons recorded 41 tackles and 12.5 sacks in 14 games for Green Bay last season (2025).

What to watch: The Packers will evaluate Parsons after Wednesday's individual drills before progressing him toward full-team reps.
