STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Vaki's RB2 emergence reduces special teams availability and signals role graduation.

Vaki established himself as a reliable RB2 on offense last week against the Vikings, earning increased offensive snaps. Special teams coordinator Dave Fipp noted that Vaki's rise on offense means he will have fewer special teams snaps going forward. Fipp praised Vaki's emergence, saying, 'Watching a player like that explode on the offensive side of the ball... I call it graduating, you're starting to graduate and work yourself up the ladder.' This indicates Vaki has earned a more prominent offensive role and is transitioning away from special teams duties.
