Packers place five on PUP with Micah Parsons expected to join the list Tuesday

Five Packers will open camp on the active/physically unable to perform list, but outside linebacker Micah Parsons was not one of them.

The Packers placed tight end Tucker Kraft, tight end Luke Musgrave, defensive tackle Javon Hargrave, offensive guard Aaron Banks and defensive back Kamal Hadden on PUP. Matt Schneidman of TheAthletic.com reports that Parsons will join the list on Tuesday.

Running back Chris Brooks went on the non-football injury list.

It was a timing issue that delayed Parsons’ move to the PUP list, per Schneidman.

Parsons has said he does not expect to return from his torn ACL until at least October. He did not undergo surgery until Dec. 29 and needed a follow-up arthroscopic procedure on his meniscus, delaying his return.

Defensive tackle Devonte Wyatt and right tackle Zach Tom are fully cleared to begin camp. Wyatt fractured his left fibula and tore ligaments in his left ankle on Thanksgiving Day, and Tom required offseason surgery for a partially torn patellar tendon.
