Savage (head) is not listed on Wednesday's injury report. Savage was evaluated for a concussion during the Jaguars' loss to the Bears in Week 6, per Demetrius Harvey of the Jacksonville Florida Times-Union, but he was cleared and managed to return to the game. He can be considered fully on track to suit up for Sunday's matchup against the Patriots.
Savage is being evaluated for a concussion during Sunday's game against the Bears. Savage will be unable to return to the game and have to enter the league's five-step protocol if he suffered a concussion. However, if cleared he should be able to return to Sunday's game in London.
Savage (quadriceps) is active Sunday against the Colts. Savage hasn't played since Week 1, but he'll now return after a three-week absence. The return of the Maryland product should be a boost to the Jaguars' secondary when they take the field for a divisional matchup against Indianapolis.
Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson said Friday that Savage (quadriceps) is expected to suit up for Sunday's game against the Colts, John Shipley of SI.com reports. Savage has missed three straight games due to a lingering quad injury, but he's managed to practice in a limited capacity in advance of Week 5 action. Friday's final injury report of the week will reveal whether Savage carries an official injury definition, but barring any setbacks, the safety should be available versus Indianapolis.
Savage (quadriceps) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports. Savage has missed the Jaguars' last three games due to a quadriceps injury sustained in the team's Week 1 loss to the Dolphins. The first-year Jaguar has now logged seven consecutive limited practice sessions, so he's likely nearing a return to the field. If Savage misses his fourth consecutive game in Week 5, expect Antonio Johnson to serve as Jacksonville's top free safety.
Savage (quadriceps) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Texans, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Head coach Doug Pederson told reporters Tuesday that Savage would return to the field this week after missing the Jaguars' last two contests with a quadriceps injury. However, it now appears the first-year Jaguar hasn't fully recovered, and he'll miss his third consecutive game Sunday. Antonio Johnson is expected to see more work with Jacksonville's first-team secondary in Savage's stead.
Head coach Doug Pederson said Tuesday that Savage (quadriceps) will be back this week, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports. Savage hasn't played since Week 1 with the injury, but it sounds like he may be suiting up this Sunday against the Texans, barring any setbacks. He was able to practice in a limited fashion last week, so he does appear to be on the proper trajectory. However, it'll be worth monitoring his practice status in the days ahead to confirm his likely availability, and he should still be considered questionable for now.
Savage (quadriceps) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Bills, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports. Savage was a limited participant in all three practices this week and was given a questionable tag Saturday. However, the quadriceps injury that kept him out of Week 2 still appears to be bothering him, and his next opportunity to play will be Week 4 against the Texans on Sept. 29. Daniel Thomas will be the primary backup at safety behind starters Andre Cisco and Antonio Johnson for Monday's game.
