• Bears' D'Andre Swift: Grinds out yards, TD in win

  5D ago • By RotoWire

  Swift rushed 22 times for 78 yards and a touchdown and brought in all four targets for 12 yards in the Bears' 30-24 win over the Patriots on Thursday. With Kyle Monangai (toe/thumb) out for a third straight game, Swift once again handled a workhorse role and parlayed it into some solid production. Swift's rushing yardage total was his third highest of the season, and the veteran back got into the end zone for the third straight game on a four-yard run late in the first quarter. Swift is up to seven rushing touchdowns on the season, but his touches would take a hit if Monangai is able to get healthy enough over the extended time between Thursday's game and a Week 8 road matchup against the Seahawks on Monday night, Nov. 2 to suit up for that contest.

• Bears' D'Andre Swift: Offsets inefficiency with two TDs

  9D ago • By RotoWire

  Swift rushed 16 times for 44 yards and two touchdowns and brought in four of five targets for 26 yards in the Bears' 31-23 win over the Falcons on Sunday. The Falcons' front did a good job on Swift overall, but the veteran running back was able to offset his average of 2.8 yards per carry with four- and two-yard touchdown runs in the first half. Swift was playing without Kyle Monangai (toe) for the second straight game, and the former did function as the clear lead back before Roschon Johnson saw more work as the contest unfolded. Swift has half his six rush TDs on the season in the last pair of contests, but he could see his workload take somewhat of a hit if Monangai is able to return for Thursday night's home contest against the Patriots.

• Bears' D'Andre Swift: Bigger workload sans Monangai

  11D ago • By RotoWire

  Swift will once again absorb a heavier backfield workload after Kyle Monangai (thumb/toe) was ruled out for Sunday's game against the Falcons, Larry Mayer of the Bears' official site reports. Monangai will miss a second consecutive game due to thumb and toe injuries, leaving Swift as the clear RB1 while Roschon Johnson operates in a depth role. Swift had just 13 touches in a Week 5 loss to the Packers, though he finished with 73 yards and a touchdown, which was the Bears' only trip to the end zone. Through five regular-season games, the veteran running back has turned 78 carries into 354 yards (4.5 YPC) and four touchdowns while catching 14 of 16 passes for 114 yards.

• Bears' D'Andre Swift: Logs 13 total touches in loss

  16D ago • By RotoWire

  Swift rushed nine times for 43 yards and a touchdown and brought in four of five targets for 30 yards in the Bears' 31-7 loss to the Packers on Sunday. With Kyle Monangai (toe) inactive, Swift had the clear-cut lead role in the Bears' ground attack Sunday, but game script progressively worked against him. The veteran back was able to somewhat salvage his fantasy day with a one-yard touchdown run just inside the two-minute warning in the first half, his first score since his three-TD day in Week 1 against the Panthers. Swift also posted his second-highest reception, receiving yardage and target totals of the season, and it remains to be seen if he'll get another game without Monangai when the Bears visit the Falcons next Sunday.

• Bears' D'Andre Swift: Good to go Sunday

  18D ago • By RotoWire

  Swift (hip/knee) was a full participant in Friday's practice and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Packers. With Swift progressing from a non-participant Wednesday to limited Thursday and full Friday, he appears set to lead Chicago's backfield in Week 5, especially after Kyle Monangai (toe) was ruled out and deemed week-to-week. Swift should be in line for a significant boost in snaps and touches with Monangai out of the picture against Green Bay, though Roschon Johnson will certainly be a factor, just maybe not to the extent Monangai had been out of Chicago's backfield.
