Lions' Sione Vaki: Won't play against Kansas City
Vaki (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Justin Rogers of DetroitFootball.net reports.
Vaki has not been able to practice since suffering a groin injury in Week 3 against the Ravens. He'll miss a third consecutive game due to the injury, and the 2024 fourth-rounder's next opportunity to play is Week 7 against Tampa Bay on Monday, Oct. 20. Craig Reynolds and Jacob Saylors will continue to serve as the Lions' depth backfield options behind Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Still not practicing
Vaki (groin) is not participating in Thursday's practice, Ben Raven of MLive reports.
Vaki has missed two consecutive games and hasn't practiced in any capacity since injuring his groin Week 3. He appears to be trending in the wrong direction for Sunday's road matchup against the Chiefs. If Vaki is ruled out again, Craig Reynolds will get another chance to handle the clear RB3 role behind Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Not playing Week 5
Vaki (groin) has been ruled for Sunday's game against the Bengals.
Vaki was unable to practice all week and will be sidelined for a second consecutive game due to a groin injury. His absence means Craig Reynolds will continue to serve as the Lions' RB3 behind Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. Vaki will look to return to practice next week and be available for the Lions' Week 6 road clash against the Chiefs on Sunday, Oct. 12.

Lions' Sione Vaki: DNP on Thursday
Vaki (groin) did not practice Thursday, Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News reports.
Vaki has appeared in just one game this season, logging seven special-teams snaps. He doesn't have an offensive role behind Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Out for Week 4
Vaki (groin) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Browns, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.
The Utah product didn't practice all week after sustaining a groin injury in the Lions' Week 3 win over the Ravens, so it's no surprise that he'll be sidelined Sunday. Vaki played just seven special-teams snaps in that contest, so his absence is unlikely to have much impact on Detroit in Week 4.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Won't return due to groin injury
Vaki has been ruled out for the rest of Monday's game against the Ravens due to a groin injury.
Vaki appeared to suffer the injury on punt coverage in the first half. He was quickly taken to the locker room, and after further evaluation, the injury has been deemed severe enough for him to not return to Monday's contest. With Craig Reynolds (coach's decision) a healthy scratch and Vaki done for the night, Jacob Saylors will serve as the Lions' RB3 behind Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery the rest of the way.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Practices fully
Vaki (hamstring) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Vaki has missed both of Detroit's first two games, but his return to a full practice this week would seem to give Vaki a chance to play Monday night against the Ravens. As the Lions' RB4, it's unclear if he'll even be active behind Jahmyr Gibbs, David Montgomery and Craig Reynolds.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Inactive for Week 2
Vaki (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bears.
The running back was listed as doubtful for the matchup after missing Week 1 with the same injury. Vaki played mostly as a special teamer in 2024, as Detroit's crowded backfield of Jahmyr Gibbs, David Montgomery and Craig Reynolds made it hard to get offensive snaps. The second-year pro is in line for a similar role once he returns.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Doubtful for Week 2
Vaki (hamstring) is doubtful for Sunday's game against the Bears.
Vaki missed Week 1 with the injury. The Lions' RB4, Vaki doesn't have much of a gameday role behind Jahmyr Gibbs, David Montgomery and Craig Reynolds in Detroit.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Returns to practice Wednesday
Vaki (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Vaki wasn't able to practice all of last week due to a lingering hamstring injury, which prevented him from playing in the Lions' Week 1 loss to the Packers. His ability to return to practice -- albeit in a limited capacity -- is a sign that the 2024 fourth-rounder is recovering from his injury, and he has a chance at making his 2025 regular-season debut against the Bears on Sunday.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Ruled out for Week 1
Vaki (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Packers.
Jahmyr Gibbs, David Montgomery and Craig Reynolds will handle backfield duties for the Lions against Green Bay. Vaki touched the ball just nine times last regular season.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Still dealing with hamstring injury
Vaki (hamstring) was listed as an non-participant on the Lions' estimated injury report Wednesday.
Vaki was limited to just one preseason game due to a hamstring injury that has lingered into the regular season. The 2024 fourth-rounder will have to return to practice Thursday and Friday in at least a limited capacity to have a chance at playing in Sunday's regular-season opener against the Packers. Vaki is expected to mostly serve on special teams this season while serving in a backfield depth role behind Jahmyr Gibbs, David Montgomery and Craig Reynolds.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Another DNP on Thursday
Vaki (hamstring) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Justin Rogers of the Detroit Football Network reports.
Vaki failed to practice for a second straight day. He'll likely need to practice in some capacity Friday to have a chance to suit up for Sunday's regular-season opener against the Packers. Even if Vaki recovers, his usage is expected to be limited primarily to special teams.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Unlikely to play in opener
Vaki didn't practice Tuesday due to a hamstring injury and is unlikely to be available for Sunday's game against the Packers, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Though Vaki earned a spot on Detroit's 53-man roster as the team's No. 4 running back, he missed the Lions' final preseason game Aug. 23 against the Texans and looks as though he'll need more time to make a full recovery. Once he moves past the hamstring, Vaki is unlikely to see much playing time on offense but could be a key part of the Lions' special-teams units.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Logs 28 total yards vs. Miami
Vaki (leg) turned five carries for 30 yards while adding two catches (on four targets) for minus-two yards during the Lions' 24-17 preseason loss to the Dolphins on Saturday.
Vaki missed the Lions' first two exhibition games due to a leg injury. He was cleared to play in Saturday's contest and worked with the offense for the first half before sitting for the second. The 2024 fourth-rounder is battling Craig Reynolds and Jacob Saylors for the Lions' RB3 spot behind Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. Vaki will use the upcoming week in practice and the Lions' preseason finale against the Texans on Saturday, Aug. 23 to make his case for a spot on the team's 53-man roster.
