Swift (groin) didn't play in Friday's preseason opener against the Bills.
Jamaal Williams got the start at running back but managed only 15 yards on nine carries. Swift's the much more explosive option in Detroit's backfield and should get the majority of touches over Williams once healthy, especially if Williams continues to struggle. The 2020 second-round pick's next opportunity to see game action will come in Week 2 of preseason against the Steelers.
