Vaki (thumb) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Vaki upgraded to a full participant Thursday and was cleared of any injury designation after being limited with a thumb issue in Wednesday's session. The running back will likely continue in his role as a relief option behind starters Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery for Sunday's game against the Steelers.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Limited Wednesday
Vaki (thumb) was limited in Wednesday's practice,
Seemingly on the injury report weekly due to various ailments this season, Vaki has appeared in eight games, playing just one offensive snap and another 136 on special teams. He carries next to no fantasy value.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Suiting up Sunday
Vaki (thumb) is active for Sunday's game against the Rams.
Vaki has been dealing with a thumb issue throughout December but hasn't missed any time because of the injury. With Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery both healthy, Vaki probably won't get much (if any) work on offense against Los Angeles, though he consistently has served as a core special-teamer.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Questionable for Sunday
Vaki (thumb) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Rams, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.
Vaki was limited in practice throughout the week with a thumb injury he suffered in Week 13 against the Packers. Given that he played through the injury in Week 14, the 24-year-old should have a good chance to play Sunday against the Rams, barring a setback. Should he sit out, Jacob Saylors will serve as the No. 3 running back behind Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Remains limited by thumb injury
Vaki logged a limited practice Wednesday.
Vaki played through the thumb injury in Detroit's Week 14 win over Dallas after practicing in limited fashion throughout the week. Considering he's remaining limited to start the new week, Vaki should be in a good position to suit up Sunday against the Rams, barring a setback.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Deemed questionable
Vaki (thumb) is questionable for Thursday's game versus the Cowboys.
Vaki appeared to pick up a thumb injury during last week's loss to the Packers, putting his status in jeopardy ahead of a crucial game versus the Cowboys. If Vaki -- who has played just two offensive snaps this season -- sits out, Jacob Saylors will serve as the No. 3 running back behind Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Dealing with thumb issue
Vaki (thumb) was a limited participant at practice Monday.
Vaki was able to play through an ankle injury in the team's 34-27 loss to the Packers on Thanksgiving, but he may have picked up a thumb injury in the contest. The running back's ability to practice in any capacity is a good sign, and he'll have two more chances to log a full practice and leave the injury behind before Thursday's matchup with the Cowboys.

He's going to be able to suit up, though he probably won't see a lot of work on offense.

Lions' Sione Vaki: Good to go
Vaki (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants.
Vaki will once again be the primary depth option behind Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery at the running back position.

Vaki (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles.
Vaki has been working through separate lower-body injuries for most of the season. He ended the week with back-to-back limited practices while working through an ankle issue, and his status for Sunday's game may not be officially known until the Lions announce their list of inactive players approximately 90 minutes before the 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff. Craig Reynolds and Kalif Raymond would handle return duties on kickoffs if Vaki is unable to play against Philadelphia.
