Jacksonville Jaguars coach Doug Pederson updated the statuses of tight end Evan Engram and safety Darnell Savage on Thursday.

Engram sustained a hamstring injury during warmups prior to Sunday’s game against the visiting Cleveland Browns, while Savage is nursing a quad injury sustained in practice last week.

“Evan, right now, he is a little bit further away. We’ll have to take it kinda day-by-day with him,” Pederson said. “Sav, we’re going to work back into practice today and get him progressed so hopefully he’s available for Monday.”

The Jaguars (0-2) visit the Buffalo Bills (2-0) on Monday night.

Engram, 30, had career-high totals in catches (114) and receiving yards (963) to go along with four touchdowns in 17 starts last season. The two-time Pro Bowl selection was limited to just one catch in Jacksonville’s 20-17 loss to the Miami Dolphins in Week 1.

Second-year tight end Brenton Strange, 23, caught a career-high three passes for 65 yards in Sunday’s 18-13 loss to Cleveland.

“I think it was big for Brenton. You know, that’s the type of player we know that he is, that he’s capable of being,” Pederson said. “He did some really good things, played well. Played physical, too, in the run game, which was good to see and he’s done that since he’s been here.

“So it just adds more to his confidence, obviously, and (he) just continues to I think grow with the offense and gets more opportunities.”

Savage, 27, signed a three-year, $21.8 million deal with the Jaguars in the offseason. He had two passes defensed in the opener at Miami and has tallied 302 tackles and nine interceptions in 73 career games (70 starts) for the Green Bay Packers and Jaguars.
