Micah Parsons gave his thoughts on the Packers' upcoming Week 9 matchup against the Panthers on Sunday afternoon.

The Green Bay Packers appear to have a high ceiling this year, and the same can be said for their emerging tight end. And on defense, another soaring player is Micah Parsons, who got an award that will leave Cowboys owner Jerry Jones keeling over in pain.

Green Bay Packers DL Micah Parsons spoke to the media on Thursday about the performance of the defensive unit and his recognition as NFC Defensive Player of the Month for October.

With Dallas at 3-4-1 and struggling to fix what ails its floundering defense, former Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons has been named NFC Defensive Player of the Month for the month of October. It’s the second time Parsons has been awarded Player of the Month, the first coming in September of 2023 when he was still with the Cowboys.

Prior to the start of the 2025 NFL regular season, the Green Bay Packers shocked the league, analysts, and even their own fans by acquiring All-Pro pass rusher Micah Parsons in a blockbuster trade with the Dallas Cowboys.

On Thursday, the Packers announced some exciting news surrounding the All-Pro defender. Green Bay announced on the team’s X account that Parsons won the NFC Defensive Player of the Month award for October. This is the second time he has been given this honor, with the other coming in September 2023 when he was with the Cowboys.

The Packers are one of the NFC contenders looking to get back to the Super Bowl. They are coming off a huge win against the Steelers.

Adding Micah Parsons is supposed to transform your team’s entire defense. For the Green Bay Packers, that’s just what he’s done, and nowhere more notably than in the success of fellow edge rusher Rashan Gary.
