D'Andre Swift Avoids Setbacks In Week 9
2 years agoDetroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that running back D'Andre Swift (ankle, shoulder) didn't have any setbacks in the Week 9 win over the Green Bay Packers. "We're hopeful we can give him a little bit more this week," Campbell said. Swift returned in Week 8 for the first time since Week 3 and saw 55 percent of the offensive snaps while handling 10 touches (five carries, five receptions). In Sunday's win over Green Bay, he played a season-low 16 percent of the snaps and had five touches (two carries and three receptions). The 23-year-old clearly isn't 100 percent healthy and may not be again this year, but fantasy managers are certainly hoping that Swift will see more action alongside backfield mate Jamaal Williams heading into Week 10 against the Chicago Bears. Until something changes, Swift has become a touchdown-dependent RB3/flex in fantasy.
