Micah Parsons to play limited snaps vs. Lions

Green Bay Packers edge rusher Micah Parsons is expected to play on Sunday, Sept. 7, against the Detroit Lions, but he will not play "a full complement of plays." (Ian Rapoport on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
Parsons is one of the best pass-rushers in the NFL, and with his offseason back injury, the Packers will not want to push him to his limit in Week 1, even in a crucial divisional matchup with Detroit. He should provide an immediate boost to Green Bay's defense (D/ST) in terms of pass-rushing upside (52.5 sacks in four seasons), even on limited snaps, but he may not be a Week 1 option in IDP leagues.
