Safety · Pittsburgh Steelers
Darnell Savage
No. 31 · 8th season
Rayshawn Jenkins is in. Darnell Savage is out. Pittsburgh moved on.
Roster cuts are quiet. One day a player is on the depth chart; the next, they're not. That is what happened to Darnell Savage in Pittsburgh — he was released by the Steelers, and the team turned around and signed safety Rayshawn Jenkins to a one-year contract.
Savage came to Pittsburgh after years as a starter in Green Bay, where he spent his first four NFL seasons before the Packers moved on. He never quite locked down a long-term home after that, and Pittsburgh was the latest chapter in that search.
Now Jenkins steps into the safety room, and Savage is back on the open market. For a player still looking for a place to plant a flag, the clock just reset.
