from Adam Shefter    I  dont  think this has been posted 
 

Packers LB Micah Parsons has been dealing with an L4/L5 facet joint sprain in his back and he may take an epidural injection prior to Sunday’s game vs. the Lions if needed to help him play, per sources.

Before trading Parsons last week, the Cowboys prescribed him a five-day plan of an anti-Inflammatory corticosteroid, a prednisone to help him recover from back tightness. They also had him on a physical therapy program.
 
Parsons has been practicing this week and he is trying to play in Sunday’s opener vs. the Lions, though one source said it still is uncertain if he will.

And now you know the rest of the story. Lol.

Sorry. Maybe im unrealistic. But I dont make guys with injuries my luxury people. Too high risk. All players deal with some injuries, but for top dollar at a position? On anything other than a 1-2 year deal? No way. Im more cautious than most though, as evidenced by my continued (and annoying i know) griping about our 2nd round RB thats injured.

That’s a good decision. I think Brown will have a bigger impact than Parsons. Without Brown, Parsons would have been a JAG, and an injured one at that. Backs don’t usually get better in this game. He may go to Green Bay and be great, or he could fade into injury obscurity.

Playing home games in the cold of green bay vs Dallas in a dome may not be the best for back issue either

For multiple 1st and a player it's not unrealistic at all. The talking heads love this because it's something to talk about before the season starts, Dallas had to move him because of Jones and I have no idea how GB justifies this if/when his health worsens. It's a gamble for sure but it's also not guaranteed on a 4th year guy and his injury history that it'sa lock to be a huge issue mov8ng forwar. I get that in the NFL injuries are just a matter of time but even not being as easy as a knee injury on a 300+ pounder it's still risky IMO. Whoever signed off on this is absolutely playing risk vs reward and it should be fun to watch play out since it won't really affect the Panthers.

I would have been pissed if they used that ammo to bring in a hurt/tweaked Parsons...especially with our D situation.

    • take a  look around the league at other young Qb's around Bryce Young's age group  such as Drake Maye , Jayden Daniels, Bo Nix , CJ Stroud  & Caleb Williams who at the time like Bryce Young they also were drafted also joined teams with a losing record .the only difference with these Qb's is after joining their teams with a losing record they led those same teams to a winning record in a very short period of time .it's simply what you call a game changer & or elite Qb's & then take a  look at  the other side of the coin you have Qb's such as Trey Lance, Zach Wilson, Mac Jones, Justin Fields  & Anthony Richardson also like Bryce Young all first round picks who instead of winning either did not play or led their teams to a losing record while playing  just because Bryce Young was a #1 overall pick does not necessarily mean that he will become improve with time if history tells you anything it's matter of fact just the opposite . lBryce Young who has an overall record of 14-30 & wildly inconsistent & never in the history pf the NFL has a Qb 5'10" or shorter had a successful carrer as Qb in the NFL  you have to ignore alot of FACTS & be really ignorant to the FACT to think Bryce Young is the future at Qb if anything history is telling you exactly what ?..just saying
    • The only answer 
    • to me these two signings were so bad for the Panthers at the time of our young team. "Sean Gilbert was signed by the Carolina Panthers on April 21, 1998, after being traded from the Washington Redskins in a deal that sent the Panthers two first-round picks (Nos. 5 and 12) to Washington. The Panthers then re-signed Gilbert to a 7-year, $46.5 million contract extension on the same date"  The other was Jason Peters being picked in the First round of the 1998 draft. "Peter played for the Panthers from 1998 to 2001, appearing in 38 games (starting 20) and recording 88 total tackles, 7.5 sacks, and 1 fumble recovery His NFL career was cut short by a chronic neck stinger, forcing him to retire after the 2001 season
