Sione Vaki injury

Vaki, now entering his second NFL season, had been expected to build on a promising rookie year, during which his primary responsibility came on special teams, where he earned valuable snaps. His exit from practice came on the same day starting center Graham Glasgow was forced out with an injury (click here for more on that), raising fresh concerns for Detroitโ€™s depth on offense.

Details on Vakiโ€™s condition have not yet been released, but the Lions will be hoping itโ€™s only a minor setback as they prepare for the preseason. Losing a young, multi-purpose weapon like Vaki for any stretch of time would be a tough blow.
