Jacksonville Jaguars safety Darnell Savage has struggled to stay on the field this season and that continued on Sunday when he left the game in the second quarter against Las Vegas with what CBS reported as an evaluation for a concussion.
Savage was seen going into the medical tent on the sideline. He left under his own power but without a helmet and headed to the locker room.

The Jaguars later announced that Savage was being evaluated for a concussion and his return was questionable.

Savage began the season practicing every day with the orange "non-contact" jersey and then was inactive for three games early in the season.
At the time he came out against the Raiders, he had made the most significant defensive play of the game, throwing Tre Tucker for an 8-yard loss on a pass on first down.
