Summary

The Green Bay Packers went all in for Micah Parsons just a year ago, but now he is set to miss the start of the season due to an ACL injury suffered last year. In that time, the Packers must survive with what they have as reinforcements are not coming. That means everyone will have to do more and that includes Jordan Love. The San Francisco 49ers are at a crossroads as a team, but are also at a crossroads with Brandon Aiyuk. The estranged wide receivers' situation got even stranger this week and puts the 49ers in a weird spot. Finally, the New England Patriots added AJ Brown this week to bolster their receiver core and it has an argument for best group in the AFC, but the Denver Broncos also added Jaylen Waddle to help them. However, the Cincinnati Bengals still have a seat at the table.

1:09.8	Green Bay Packers dealing with Micah Parsons' injury.
1:13.3	So Parsons did some media availability this week, said there was a nine-month rule.
1:19.5	He's not going to play quickly.
1:24.1	They're going to, you know, kind of slow play it.
1:26.7	And honestly, that makes a lot of sense
1:28.8	to me, Nick. They might as well not rush him back. Yeah. I mean, why would you rush him back
1:34.1	too soon? That happens, it could get even worse. And what you don't want to do is compound the
1:39.9	loss from last year of Micah Parsons to an even longer absence, and then you miss them out on the
1:45.1	2026 season as well. So that's the last thing that you want if you are the Packers.
