D'Andre Swift A Top RB Play If Active rotoballer.com Fri 9/16/22 10:48 AM

Washington gave up an RB1 performance to James Robinson last week, and Travis Etienne dropped a receiving touchdown early in the contest. Week 1 statistics shouldn't be taken into consideration ...

A league source emphasized Swift is "good to go." "He's going to be ready," the source predicted. "He's good." Swift himself didn't sound particularly worried about his injury either. The 23-year-old handled 15 carries for 144 yards and a touchdown and also caught ...

D'Andre Swift Misses Practice With Ankle Injury rotoballer.com Wed 9/14/22 5:09 PM

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday due to an ankle injury. It remains to be seen if this is a serious enough injury to keep Swift from playing in Week 2 against the Washington Commanders. If you have Swift rostered, it's time to immediately run to the waiver wire and grab his backup, Jamaal Williams, if he's available in your league. We'll have to monitor Swift's status the rest of the week to determine if there's a realistic chance that he might sit...

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift has been a hot name in fantasy football during the offseason and is poised for a breakout year as a top pass-catching back. The Eagles' front-seven looks strong on paper, but Swift should be viewed as an automatic starter in PPR leagues, regardless of matchup. Swift saw an 18.4-percent target share last season and grabbed 4.8 receptions per game. Detroit added weapons to its offense, but Swift should continue to be Jared Goff's security blanket on an ...

D'Andre Swift Is Detroit's Best Playmaker rotoballer.com Wed 8/24/22 12:40 PM

Detroit Lions third-year running back D'Andre Swift showed up to training camp in great shape and is focused on having the breakout season that the team thinks he can have in this offense. The Lions will continue to rotate Swift with veteran Jamaal Williams, but Swift remains the team's best playmaker. He'll get his share of red-zone opportunities both as a ball-carrier and a pass-catcher. The 23-year-old has played in 13 games in each of his first two seasons in the NFL, and he had 151 ...

He missed some time due to injury, but assuming he stays healthy and sees the bulk of the workload over Jamaal Williams, he could finish as a low-end ...
