Savage (quadriceps) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Browns. Head coach Doug Pederson told reporters earlier Friday that Savage wasn't expected to suit up for the Jaguars' Week 2 contest, and the team's injury report released later that day confirmed it. Andre Cisco and Daniel Thomas are currently the only two healthy safeties on the Jaguars' active roster, as Andrew Wingard (knee), Tashaun Gipson (suspended) and Savage will all be sidelined Sunday.

Savage (quadriceps) did not practice Thursday. Savage's inability to take the field Thursday may not bode well for his chances of suiting up Sunday against Cleveland. He'll have another chance to take the field Friday, but if he's unable to play Week 2, the Jaguars will be notably short-handed in the secondary. Daniel Thomas (Achilles) is also working his way back from injury, leaving Andre Cisco as the only healthy safety currently on the roster.

Savage is slated to ink a three-year contract with Jacksonville, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Savage, a 2019 first-round pick, is fresh off completing his rookie deal with the Packers and will provide an immediate boost at safety for the Jaguars. After an impressive first two seasons in the league, Savage struggled from 2021-23, and missed assignments resulted in him even losing his starting job for part of the 2022 campaign. He will look to reignite his career under new defensive coordinator Ryan Nielsen in Jacksonville.

Savage recorded 51 tackles (36 solo) and a pass deflection over 10 regular-season games in the 2023 season. The pick-six Savage recorded in Green Bay's playoff opener does not show up on his stat line, but that was the only interception he recorded during the campaign. Savage has spent five seasons with the Packers since being drafted in the first round in 2019, but he will be a free agent this offseason, and it remains to be seen if he will stick around or link up with another team.

Savage had four tackles (three solo) and returned an interception 64 yards for a touchdown in Sunday's 48-32 wild-card victory over the Cowboys. Savage arguably made the key play in Sunday's game, as his pick-six with under two minutes to go in the first half gave Green Bay a relatively insurmountable 27-0 lead. Savage was rested along with some other starters late in the game and played only 83 percent of the snaps in the contest, but he played all but one snap over the final two weeks of the regular season; therefore, expect him to be plenty busy when the Packers take on the 49ers in the divisional round.
