Edge rusher Micah Parsons is preparing to make his Packers debut on Sunday, just over a week after Green Bay acquired him from the Dallas Cowboys, though it's not certain he'll play because he's been limited in practice with a back issue.

Another All-Pro pass rusher, Detroit’s Aidan Hutchinson, will be making his comeback after breaking his left leg in two places last October during that 47-9 blowout of the Cowboys.

The Packers sent two first-round picks and three-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle Kenny Clark for the right to acquire Parsons and make him the highest-paid non-quarterback in league history.

Just how much Parsons will be able to contribute right away remains uncertain.

The Lions are the two-time defending NFC North champions, winning consecutive division titles for the first time since they won a franchise-best three in a row from 1952-54. Detroit is 35-9 over the last 2 1/2 seasons.

The Lions, though, have slipped behind the Packers as favorites to win the division, according to BetMGM.

The Packers figured to have trouble slowing Detroit's running back tandem of Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery, who combined to rush for 2,187 yards and 28 touchdowns last season.

Packers quarterback Jordan Love had surgery on his left (non-throwing) thumb last month. He's been wearing tape and a brace.

The Lions have won in each of their last three trips to Lambeau Field, a streak that started when they eliminated the Packers from playoff contention in four-time MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers' final game with Green Bay.

Game time Sunday is 3:25 pm.
