Ready to play Monday Savage (shoulder) is active for Monday's matchup with the Lions, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Impact Savage was considered questionable after being limited by a shoulder issue at practice this week, but he's good to go for Monday's contest. The 24-year-old had only one tackle in 51 defensive snaps during the season opener before exiting with the injury, and he'll attempt to make more of an impact in Week 2.

Carries questionable tag Savage (shoulder) is questionable for Monday's game against the Lions.

Impact Savage played 51 of 62 defensive snaps in Week 1 before he suffered a shoulder injury, though the blowout nature of the game may have factored into the team's decision to hold Savage out. The 2019 first-round pick was a limited participant in practice all week. Last year, he registered 75 tackles (56 solo), 12 pass breakups and four interceptions through 15 contests.

Impact Savage was forced out of Sunday's Week 1 loss with a shoulder injury, but it was encouraging to see him participate in the first practice of the week in a limited capacity. If the 24-year-old is unable to return for Monday night's game against the Lions, Henry Black will likely take over as the starting free safety.

Makes career-high 10 stops Savage made a career-high 10 tackles (eight solo) in Sunday's victory over the Bears.

To be precise, over the final eight games of the regular season, Savage racked up 43 tackles (34 solo), a sack, four interceptions and 10 pass deflections.

Late addition to injury report Savage (groin) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Lions, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Savage made his first appearance on the injury report Friday, meaning he likely picked up his groin injury during the final practice session of the week. He'll be evaluated over the weekend and could be a true game-time decision Sunday. If Savage is forced to sit out, Will Redmond is the top candidate to start at free safety.
