Detroit Lions running backs D'Andre Swift (groin) and Jamaal Williams (hip) are both listed as questionable for Week 5 against the Minnesota Vikings after practicing in a limited fashion all week. Swift has been questionable all year but hasn't missed a game, and both running backs seem likely to suit up on Sunday. Although Williams saw more work -- 14 carries to Swift's eight -- and was more effective in the Week 4 loss to the Chicago Bears, Swift should remain the Lions primary back moving ...

With Sunday of Week 5 almost here, dig into some updated injury reports to keep in mind while setting your fantasy football lineups.

Following Wednesday's NFL practices, here are some critical injury reports to stay updated on for fantasy football in Week 5.

Detroit Lions running backs D'Andre Swift (groin) and Jamaal Williams (hip) were both limited in Wednesday's practice. Swift continues to be limited in practices due to a groin injury that has bothered him early in the season, but he continues to be a focal point of Detroit's offense. Swift played 73.2 percent of the offensive snaps to Williams' 29.6 percent in the Week 4 loss to the Chicago Bears, but Williams out-carried Swift 14 to eight and outgained him 66 to 16 on the ground. Swift also ...

With another week of games in the rearview mirror and Week 5 on the horizon, here are how the RB fantasy football rankings shake out.

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift was held to eight carries for 16 yards and added four receptions for 33 yards in the team's 24-14 loss to the Bears in Week 4. Swift was active in the passing game early but teammate Jamaal Williams out-carried him 14-to-8. Swift is the more talented back but the Lions coaching staff remains committed to deploying a timeshare in the backfield. Swift will carry low-end RB2 appeal heading into Week 5.

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift (groin) will play Sunday against the Chicago Bears. Swift practiced all week -- albeit in a limited fashion -- so it's not a surprise to see him suit up. Swift has 289 yards and two touchdowns so far this season and has been a crucial part of a Lions offense that frankly just doesn't have very many weapons for quarterback Jared Goff, leading to a large role in the run game and pass game for the second-year back. Consider him an RB1 for this contest.

With a matchup against a divisional rival in Week 4, should fantasy football managers start or sit Detroit Lions RB D'Andre Swift this week?

With the 2021 NFL season reaching full gear, here are some updated injury reports to keep in mind for your Week 4 fantasy football lineups.

The Swift breakout is here and I'm a bit mad at myself for not being higher on him last week. He touched the ball 21 times against Baltimore and turned it into 107 yards and a score - which was very impressive for the tough matchup. Despite not being a traditional workhorse back, Swift is still averaging over 17 touches per game (a tick more than Chubb believe it or not) and this matchup against Chicago isn't nearly as tough as it might appear on the surface.I look for the Lions to continue to ...
