• Bears' D'Andre Swift: Goes for 89 yards Monday

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Swift (groin) rushed 19 times for 79 yards while bringing in his lone target for 10 receiving yards in Monday's 30-12 loss to Minnesota. Swift created a conundrum for fantasy managers when he was deemed questionable with a groin injury for one of the last two games of Week 15. The 25-year-old performed well on 20 touches given the negative game script, and the 19 carries ranked second for the tailback in 14 starts this season. Swift did fail to punch in a short touchdown early in the second half, forcing the Bears to settle for a field goal in the eventual loss. Now that he's healthy, the Georgia product will prepare to face the team (the Lions) that drafted him in 2020 on Sunday.

• Bears' D'Andre Swift: Active in Week 15

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Swift (groin) is listed as active Monday at Minnesota. Swift missed Thursday's walkthrough and Friday's practice due to a groin injury, but a limited session Saturday left the running back questionable for Week 15 action. While Swift will be able to suit up Monday, Roschon Johnson remains sidelined due to the concussion that he suffered Week 13, and Travis Homer and practice-squad call-up Darrynton Evans also are available to the Bears backfield. On the season, Swift is averaging 17.5 touches for 81.3 yards from scrimmage per game while scoring five rushing TDs in his 13 appearances.

• Bears' D'Andre Swift: RBs to Sit

  3D ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  Swift already faced Minnesota in Week 12 and struggled with 13 carries for 30 yards and three catches for 35 yards on four targets. He hasn't scored a touchdown since Week 11, and he's been held to 9.5 PPR points or less in three games in a row against the Vikings, Lions and 49ers. Minnesota is No. 4 in fewest Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs, and Swift is only worth using as a flex option in most leagues for Week 15.

• Bears' D'Andre Swift: Listed as questionable for Monday

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Swift (groin) is listed as questionable for Monday's contest against the Vikings. Swift managed to practice in limited fashion Saturday, an upgrade after failing to practice either of the past two days. That's effectively the same cadence the fifth-year back had last week before ultimately suiting up against the 49ers, where he tallied just 38 yards on 14 carries and barely factored in the passing game. Chicago's offense fell woefully behind in that contest almost immediately, but it's possible the Vikings will put their divisional rival in a similar game-script bind come Monday. Roschon Johnson (concussion) is already ruled out, so if Swift was ultimately unable to play then Travis Homer projects to see a heavy workload, with Darrynton Evans also factoring in.

• Bears' D'Andre Swift: Struggles continue in blowout loss

  10D ago • By RotoWire

  Swift (quadriceps) took 14 carries for 38 yards and caught one of two targets for two receiving yards in Sunday's 38-13 loss to San Francisco. Swift dealt with a quadriceps injury during the practice week before ultimately being cleared for action Sunday. The 25-year-old dominated the backfield touches, but his 15 combined touches resulted in just 40 total yards. Swift has averaged well under four yards per carry in five of his last six contests with only one trip to the end zone over that span. Things won't get any easier for the Bears' offense as they prepare for a road tilt against Minnesota next Monday.
