I thought he just said he didn't want to put Trump in jail for contempt?

On Trump's tenth instance of contempt he said that he didn't want Trump to go to prison. I suspect the judge will issue the maximum fine allowed and no jail time.

I assume he meant jail for contempt, not no jail at all.

Though jailing trump will 100% put the judge's life in danger.

Jailing someone in the middle of a trial is a hugely disruptive delay. But now the trial is over, and the judge gets to count all ten counts of contempt (so far!) against Trump during sentencing. Trump has also been doing everything that a repentant defendant should not be doing, so even though it's his first offense, he might get some actual jail time. Not the max, but maybe a few months. Especially if he violates the gag order and goes after the judge of his family again. Or the jurors.

I will give 2:1 odds up to $1000 that he gets no jail time.
