Darnell Savage Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.

Jaguars LB Devin Lloyd (knee), S Darnell Savage (quad), and Edge Josh Hines-Allen (concussion) are officially active for today's game against the Colts. Hines-Allen arrives as easiy the top IDP prospect among them. Lloyd figures to be usable as well, especially with lead LB Foye Oluokun on short-term IR.

Jaguars LB Devin Lloyd (knee) is inactive for today's game against the Texans. With LB Foye Oluokun already on IR for a foot injury, that leaves Ventrel Miller and Chad Muma as the top 2 LBs for the game. It's tough to know exactly how much playing time to expect for either reserve. Oluokun dipped to 80-85% as the corps leader over the first two weeks, with Miller and Muma rotating in more than the Nos. 3-4 LBs did over the past couple of seasons. Each guy is a low-level IDP option for Week 4, though, with upside beyond their spots in our rankings. S Darnell Savage (quad) is also inactive.

The Packers have ruled LB De'Vondre Campbell (neck) out for Sunday's game against the Panthers. That pushes Isaiah McDuffie into the starting lineup for what will be his eighth start. McDuffie tallied at least 5 solos in each of those seven previous starts and averaged 9.1 total tackles. He'll be an option for tackle-friendly IDP lineups. McDuffie sits in LB3 territory of our Week 16 rankings. Quay Walker spent the whole practice week limited but carries no injury designation into the game. He should be fine to use. Green Bay also ruled out S Darnell Savage (shoulder).

Packers LB Quay Walker (shoulder) is active for today's game against the Buccaneers. There's some re-injury risk, but he's OK to use as planned in your IDP lineups. S Darnell Savage (shoulder) and CB Jaire Alexander (shoulder) are inactive. Their absences hurt Green Bay's pass defense.

Packers LB Quay Walker (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. He managed limited practices Thursday and Friday, so Walker's at least trending in the right direction. We'll check his status Sunday. CB Jaire Alexander (shoulder) and S Darnell Savage (shoulder) are also questionable.

Packers LB De'Vondre Campbell (neck) is active for tonight's game against the Chiefs. S Rudy Ford (biceps, groin) and S Darnell Savage (calf) are also active. It'll be Savage's first game since Week 7. CB Jaire Alexander (shoulder) is inactive for the fourth straight game.

Packers LB Quay Walker (knee) is active for today's game against the Broncos. Use him as planned in your IDP lineups. S Darnell Savage (calf) and CB Eric Stokes (foot) are also active. It'll be the season debut for Stokes. CB Jaire Alexander (back) is inactive, leaving Green Bay without its top cover guy.

Packers LB Quay Walker (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Broncos. He managed limited practices all week. We'll check his status ahead of Sunday's kickoff. Elsewhere on the defense, S Darnell Savage (calf), CB Eric Stokes (foot), and CB Jaire Alexander (back) are also questionable. Alexander opened the week off the injury report but aggravated the issue Thursday and then missed Friday's practice. That might leave Green Bay without its top cover guy.

Packers DB Darnell Savage left in the 1st quarter of Sunday night's game against the Eagles with a foot injury and is questionable to return. We'll watch for updates.

Packers S Darnell Savage sustained a hamstring injury in Friday night's practice, the AP reports. He downplayed the issue afterward, saying: "I don't think it's a concern. It's a fast-people injury. Some of those things you can't avoid. ... I'll be all right." We'd bet on the team proceeding cautiously in returning Savage to action. Vernon Scott stepped in for Savage on Friday.

Packers S Darnell Savage (concussion) is active for today's game against Washington. OLB Preston Smith (oblique) and CB Kevin King (shoulder) are out.

Packers S Darnell Savage is questionable for Sunday's game against Washington with a concussion. OLB Preston Smith (oblique) and CB Kevin King (shoulder) are also questionable. None is a high-level IDP option.

Packers S Darnell Savage left Sunday's win over the Bears with a concussion. We'll see whether he can get through the league protocol in time for next Sunday's game against Washington.
