Overview

  • Head coach Dan Quinn confirmed Monday that Will Harris fractured his fibula in the Week 3 win over the Raiders and the team placed him on injured reserve.
  • Washington signed former Packers first-round pick Darnell Savage after a Monday visit, according to his agent and multiple reports.
  • Harris must miss at least four games under NFL IR rules, with his return dependent on further evaluation and treatment decisions.
  • Savage is expected to play a meaningful role in the secondary, with Jeremy Reaves, Quan Martin, Percy Butler and rookie Tyler Owens set for expanded duties.
  • A seven-year veteran recently released by Jacksonville, Savage brings starting experience and familiarity with Washington staffer Jason Simmons from their Green Bay tenure.
