Packers linebacker Micah Parsons has more sacks against the Washington Commanders than any other opponent and plans to be more involved Thursday night in his second game in Green Bay since being traded by the Dallas Cowboys.

Parsons sacked Jared Goff of the Lions in his debut, pushing beyond a pregame snap count determined by coaches and medical personnel because of a back injury.

"At the end of the day, you've got to let me push through some things," Parsons said of negotiating on the sideline to get more snaps in the 27-13 win over Detroit on Sunday. ""‘You've got to let me get tired and get wore out out there so that way I can become better and get better.'

"That's when it was like, ‘OK, your reps can go up.' Sometimes you've got to fight for your own right to play."
