Micah Parsons Ranked These 2 NFL Defenses Ahead of Packers
Micah Parsons put the Green Bay Packers behind a pair of AFC squads when ranking the league's top-five defenses.
Micah Parsons, the All-Pro pass rusher for the Green Bay Packers, ranked the Houston Texans and Denver Broncos ahead of his own team on his The Edge podcast ahead of the 2026 season. Parsons initially placed the New England Patriots at fourth but added them after realizing he had overlooked them. He praised the Houston Texans' defense, led by Will Anderson Jr., for allowing only 277.2 total yards per game last season.
Parsons also highlighted the Denver Broncos' defense, citing their elite secondary led by Pat Surtain II and a cohesive front seven. He further commended the Packers' safeties, Evan Williams, and rookie cornerback Brandon Cisse, projecting the team would form a formidable pressure unit.
