Vereen (concussion) is active Sunday against the Lions.

Vereen was back in action last week for the first time since Week 3, but sustained a concussion after just three offensive snaps. The 27-year-old cleared the league's concussion protocol Saturday, however, putting him in line to suit up for the Week 15 home matchup. Though active, don't expect Vereen to be a major factor in the team's offensive game plan after logging limited practices all week. Rashad Jennings and Paul Perkins are expected to lead the team's backfield Sunday, both of whom produced 15 carries for 45 yards last week against Dallas.
