Second-year running back Sione Vaki, who missed the first two games with a hamstring injury, will make his 2025 regular season debut after being a full participant in practice this week. His return is likely why Reynolds is inactive tonight as the Lions are going with Jahmyr Gibbs<\/a>, David Montgomery<\/a>, Vaki and Jacob Saylors at running back against a Ravens’ defense that’s allowed 115.5 rushing yards per game through the first two weeks of the season.<\/p>\n

Linebacker Trevor Nowaske will also play tonight after an elbow injury suffered in the preseason forced him to miss Detroit’s first two games. The return of Vaki and Nowaske is a big boost for Detroit’s special teams.<\/p>\n

“Well, look, it’s going to help,” Lions head coach Dan Campbell said of their return this week. “It’s going to help, those are two good football players for us in the teams aspect.<\/p>\n

“But they also bring things offensively and defensively that we can use. So, they do, they’ll give us a little bit of a bump here. Now, it’s their first game back, we understand that, but we look forward to them being back and being able to use them.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Second-year running back Sione Vaki, who missed the first two games with a hamstring injury, will make his…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":175141,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[104411,62794,64455,44544,31901,36001,104409,44545,67106,104410,64451,31900,60362,349,104412,64453,99,56527,104408,36003],"class_list":{"0":"post-175140","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nfl","8":"tag-al-quadin-muhammad","9":"tag-chris-smith","10":"tag-craig-reynolds","11":"tag-d-j-reed","12":"tag-homepage-centerpiece-package","13":"tag-jack-campbell","14":"tag-jacob-saylors","15":"tag-kerby-joseph","16":"tag-kingsley-eguakun","17":"tag-marcus-davenport","18":"tag-mekhi-wingo","19":"tag-news-twentyman","20":"tag-news-inactives","21":"tag-nfl","22":"tag-ross-dwelley","23":"tag-sione-vaki","24":"tag-sports","25":"tag-taylor-decker","26":"tag-thomas-harper","27":"tag-trevor-nowaske"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/175140","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=175140"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/175140\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/175141"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=175140"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=175140"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=175140"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
