Footballguys on Sione Vaki
From the article
Vaki, however, remains widely available on the waiver wire. He has been listed as the RB2 behind Gibbs on unofficial depth charts, and he was held out of the third preseason game because the coaching staff felt he had already shown enough to earn a roster spot.
STACKED’s take
Vaki has immediate backup path with Pacheco out; 10% rostered in dynasty leagues.
Vaki is listed as the RB2 behind Jahmyr Gibbs on unofficial depth charts and was held out of the third preseason game because the coaching staff felt he had already shown enough to earn a roster spot—not due to injury. With Isiah Pacheco (the intended backup) placed on injured reserve for a back injury and expected to miss at least the first four games, Vaki has an immediate path to playing time on a high-powered Lions offense. He remains widely available on the waiver wire at 10% rostered in Sleeper dynasty leagues. Head coach Dan Campbell prefers players familiar with his system, and Vaki is entering his third season with the team, giving him an edge over second-year Jacob Saylors in the backup competition. The source recommends considering Vaki as a cheap insurance policy with potential fantasy relevance.
