Packers' Micah Parsons Suffers Knee Injury vs. Broncos

Green Bay Packers edge rusher Micah Parsons suffered a noncontact injury to his left knee late in the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos at Empower Field at Mile High, raising concerns for the team's playoff push.

The injury occurred as Parsons pursued Broncos quarterback Bo Nix on a rollout during a drive by Denver. Parsons grabbed his knee and collapsed to the ground without contact from an opponent. Trainers immediately attended to him on the field, where he was overheard telling them, "I'm out." He walked off with assistance and headed to the locker room, listed as questionable to return. The Packers announced the knee injury shortly after, but no further updates on its severity were available immediately following the game.

The timing proved costly for Green Bay. Two plays after Parsons exited, the Broncos scored a touchdown, seizing a 27-23 lead at the end of the third quarter. Earlier in the contest, Parsons had contributed with a forced fumble, underscoring his impact on the defensive line. The Packers, already dealing with setbacks, had lost wide receiver Christian Watson and tight end Josh Whyle to season-ending injuries earlier in the game.
