Still, the issue will need to be monitored going forward in order to avoid a lingering issue.

Fifth-year option exercised The Packers exercised Savage's fifth-year option for 2023 on Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact In 2021, Savage started every game the Packers played for a third straight year, and he was on the field for 96.2 percent of the team's defensive snaps. However, his numbers took a dip from his second season to his third. Regardless, he still totaled 63 tackles, nine pass deflections and two interceptions during the 2021 campaign and will likely play a critical role for Green Bay's defense over the next two seasons.

Starts every game for third time Savage made 63 tackles (48 solo) and added two interceptions and nine pass deflections over 17 games in 2021.

Impact Savage started every game the Packers played for a third straight year, and he was on the field for 96.2 percent of the team's defensive snaps. However, his numbers took a bit of a dip from his second season to his third. He will be locked into a starting spot again next season, and the Packers will be hoping he can play at the level he did in 2020, when he picked off four passes and averaged an extra tackle per contest.

JANUARY 5, 2022 • Associated Press

Activated off COVID list Savage (undisclosed) has been restored from the Packers' reserve/COVID-19 list.

Impact One day after being added to the COVID list, Savage has cleared the league's health and safety protocols. It is unclear if he had a false positive or was simply a close contact, but he will now be available for the Packers' regular-season finale verus the Lions. Green Bay has already secured a first-round bye, so the starting strong safety is unlikely to see a full workload in Week 18.

Added to COVID list The Packers have placed Savage on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

Impact Savage will now need to clear the league's health and safety protocols ahead of the Packers' Week 18 matchup with the Lions for any chance at suiting up. However, with the team already having clinched a first-round bye, they may already have plans to rest their starting strong safety.

Snags second interception Savage tallied eight tackles (five solo) and an interception in the Packers' 24-22 victory over the Browns in Week 16.

Impact Savage had gone eight straight games without a pick, but he wasted no time snapping that streak, picking off Cleveland's Baker Mayfield on the Browns' second possession. Savage has not been quite as productive as he was last season, but he has been a rock in the Packers' defensive backfield, playing every defensive snap in nine straight games.
