Micah Parsons Says His Focus Is Recovery, Not Revenge Against Cowboys
Green Bay Packers defensive end Micah Parsons says he is focused on getting healthy, not taking revenge on the Dallas Cowboys.
The teams are due to meet at Lambeau Field in Week 6, but Parsons is still recovering from a torn ACL suffered last season.
Dallas traded him to Green Bay after a contract dispute, and the Packers gave up Kenny Clark and two first-round picks in the deal.
Parsons said he wants both knees healthy and is checking that the smaller details are right before he returns.
He has not said when he will play again, and the sources do not give a return date.
His recovery matters to Green Bay, where the defense has been without one of its leading pass rushers.
