Sione Vaki, RB (DET)

Leaves with eye injury

Home  >  News

Vaki (eye) exited Monday's practice early, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

Vaki was poked in the eye during the session. The 2024 fourth-round pick has a shot to compete for the No. 2 spot at running back in 2026, but the signing of Isiah Pacheco means Vaki will need every opportunity to make a case to serve as the primary backup to Jahmyr Gibbs (back).
