Lions' Halapoulivaati Vaitai: Likely done for season
Vaitai (back) is unlikely to play again this season, according to head coach Dan Campbell, Justin Rogers of The Detroit News reports.
Vaitai was placed on IR on Tuesday due to a back injury that forced him to miss Sunday's win over the Chargers and is related to the back issue that caused him to miss last season. Graham Glasgow will continue to start in his place moving forward, including Week 11 against the Bears.

Lions' Halapoulivaati Vaitai: Won't play Sunday
Vaitai (back) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Chargers.
Vaitai went from limited participation at Wednesday's practice to DNPs on both Thursday and Friday, so it's no surprise that the 30-year-old offensive lineman will miss this Sunday's contest. Colby Sorsdal is expected to make the start at right guard in Vaitai's stead.

Lions' Halapoulivaati Vaitai: Questionable Sunday
Vaitai (knee) is listed as questionable going into Sunday's game against the Panthers.
Vaitai seems to be trending in the right direction to play, as he went from a limited participant during Wednesday's and Thursday's practices to a full participant Friday. The 30-year-old has missed Detroit's last two games, and if he's unable to suit up once again, Graham Glasgow will likely continue starting at right guard.
