D'Andre Swift Injury History & Analysis

The Bears are finalizing a deal to make Ben Johnson their new HC, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Johnson has been one of the hottest names in coaching circles for a couple of years now. He's helped the Lions to three straight top-5 finishes in both points and total yards. Detroit ranked seventh in offensive DVOA in 2022, fifth in 2023, and third this past year. Johnson had plenty of talent work with on those Lions teams but maximized that talent with creative and effective play calling. This will be his first go as a HC.

Bears RB Roschon Johnson (concussion) put in a full week of practice and is not listed on the final injury report for Sunday’s game vs. the Lions. Johnson isn’t a viable fantasy option but figures to steal some passing-down and short-yardage snaps from RB D’Andre Swift.

Bears RB Roschon Johnson (concussion) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. That puts him on track to return for this weekend's game vs. the Lions and siphon some passing-down and short-yardage work from RB D'Andre Swift.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) is active for tonight's game vs. the Vikings. He only got in a limited practice on Saturday and was listed as questionable, so it's safe to assume he'll be playing at less than 100% in this matchup against the league's fourth-ranked RB defense.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game vs. the Vikings. He only got in a limited practice on Saturday but said afterward that he expects to play against Minnesota. The late kickoff makes it a tricky situation for fantasy owners, though. RB Roschon Johnson (concussion) is out for Week 15, so Swift's absence would leave the backfield to RBs Travis Homer and Darrynton Evans. If you're considering those two for Swift insurance, we'd lean toward Homer.
