Lions' D'Andre Swift: Held out of practice

Swift (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday, though Lions head coach Dan Campbell said the running back is "doing a lot better than at this time last week."

Campbell presumably expects Swift to play this Sunday in Minnesota, considering the running back ended up playing Week 2 when the ankle was more of a problem. Swift took only five carries in the 36-27 win over Washington last week, but he made the most of them (56 rushing yards) and also took one of his five targets for a 22-yard touchdown. He ultimately played 51 percent of Detroit's offensive snaps, down from 67 percent in Week 1. Swift's workload could rebound against the Vikings if he continues to feel better than he did last week.
