The Green Bay Packers made perhaps the most impactful move in the entire NFL this offseason.<\/p>\n

Adding a superstar of Micah Parsons\u2018 caliber to their already stacked defense was supposed to take them to Super Bowl contention.<\/p>\n

So far, however, the early returns have been rather modest.<\/p>\n

As pointed out by MLFootball on X, the Dallas Cowboys have gotten more sacks from backup pass-rusher James Houston IV (3.5) than the Packers have gotten from Parsons (2.5).<\/p>\n

When you consider that Houston is making just $1.1 million this season and the Packers gave Parsons a $188 million contract extension, that\u2019s all the more remarkable.<\/p>\n

\"Micah<\/p>\n

Then again, context matters here.<\/p>\n

For starters, Parsons only played 45 percent of the team\u2019s snaps in the season opener, and he\u2019s still working his way back from a back injury.<\/p>\n

Also, Houston and the Cowboys have played one more game than the Packers.<\/p>\n

More than that, Parsons\u2019 impact goes way beyond the stat sheet.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s still been a disruptive presence at the line of scrimmage, drawing double teams in almost every play and putting up pressure on the quarterback.<\/p>\n

The Packers didn\u2019t make this trade thinking just about this season.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

They hope that Parsons can be the defensive anchor they can rely on for the next decade.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s just entering his prime, and he should only get better as he gets healthier and more settled in on Jeff Hafley\u2019s defense.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s never had fewer than 12 sacks in a season, and if he wants to keep that pace up, he should be in for a monumental run after the bye week.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n
