He overcame a jaw injury in 2023 to post a stellar season in 2024, which earned him a multi\u2011year extension through 2027 . He continued that momentum into the 2025 season, marking it with a two\u2011try performance in round one\u2019s opener ([nine.com.au][3]).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As of this afternoon, neither the Raiders nor Savage\u2019s representatives have issued a statement. Speculation is rife: could a release be mutual, or is he pursuing opportunities overseas? Insiders warn this story is far from settled.
