D'Andre Swift A Risky Play In Week 1
4 years agoDetroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (leg) continues to practice on a limited basis heading into the team's Week 1 matchup against the Bears. Swift has missed the majority of training camp with an injury that has been shrouded in mystery. The Lions also recently signed veteran runner Adrian Peterson, further clouding Swift's availability heading into the season. Odds are that Swift will suit up but will go up against a Bears Defense that the seventh fewest fantasy points to opposing runners last year. It may be wise to sit all of the Lions running backs in Week 1 and evaluate who gets the "lion's share" (pun!) of the touches moving forward.
