Darnell Savage has been working with the Packers' No. 1 defense since he arrived following the April NFL draft and has consistently turned heads throughout organized team activity practices and minicamp.
MIKE ROEMER, ASSOCIATED PRESSGREEN BAY — The players may be enjoying their final few weeks of vacation before training camp kicks off on July 25, but Davante Adams isn’t taking a break from his campaign to promote rookie safety Darnell Savage as the next big thing on the Green Bay Packers' defense.
When the team’s official Instagram account posted on Monday a photo of Savage, the second of the club’s two first-round picks, in action during the mandatory minicamp with an all-caps comment (“BORN READY”) and a hashtag (#MondayMotivation), there was the Packers’ two-time Pro Bowl wide receiver, chiming in.
