Packers' Darnell Savage: Won't play Thursday
Savage (calf) won't play in Green Bay's game against the Lions on Thursday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the team's official site reports.
The Packers designated Savage to return from injured reserve on Monday, and while there was thought to be a chance he could play Thursday, he will now have to wait at least another week to make his return. In the 26-year-old's absence, Jonathan Owens should start at safety once again.

Packers' Darnell Savage: Getting closer to return
Savage (calf) was designated to return from injured reserve Monday.
Savage is now eligible to be added back to the 53-man roster, but the Packers will have the ability to evaluate him in practice over the next 21 days before having to activate him. With the Packers facing a quick turnaround for Week 12 with a Thursday matchup against the Lions, it may make sense for the team to hold off on activating Savage until at least Week 13 so that he can get in a full slate of practices. The Packers listed Savage as a limited participant on Monday's estimated practice report.

Packers' Darnell Savage: Heads to IR
Green Bay placed Savage (calf) on its injured reserve list Wednesday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
In a big blow to an already-shallow Packers safety rotation, Savage will now have to sit out at least the next four games as he recovers from the calf injury he sustained in Week 7 at Denver. Jonathan Owens will probably step into a starting role until Savage is able to return.

Packers' Darnell Savage: Active Sunday
Savage (calf) has been cleared to play in Sunday's contest in Denver, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official website reports.
Savage was a limited participant in practice all week, but he is feeling good enough to play. He injured his calf in the Packers' Week 5 loss in Las Vegas, but he had time to recover during the bye week. Look for him to take on his usual safety responsibilities assuming any setbacks are avoided.

Packers' Darnell Savage: Leads team in tackles
Savage had 10 tackles (five solo) in Sunday's 38-20 victory over the Bears.
Savage reached double digits in the tackle department only once during the previous campaign, but he hit that mark in his first opportunity to do so in the new season despite being on the field for only 81 percent of Green Bay's defensive snaps. Only two defenders played more than Savage in Sunday's lopsided contest, and the 10 stops suggest he could help those who play in leagues that use IDPs.

Savage made a solo tackle in Saturday's 19-15 preseason victory over the Seahawks.
Savage lost his starting spot at one point last season, but he wound up opening all three exhibition games with the first-team defense. He is on track to open the regular season as one of Green Bay's two starting safeties and will be looking to make more of an impact than he did in 2022 with free agency looming next offseason.
