D'Andre Swift

Bears agreed to terms with RB D’Andre Swift, formerly of the Eagles, on a three-year, $24.5 million contract.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports the deal includes $15.3 million guaranteed. It’s a questionable commitment in a loaded running back class for a team that already wasn’t hurting for running back depth. Swift finally stayed healthy last season as he cruised to new career highs in Philadelphia, but he was inefficient both as a rusher and pass catcher behind one of the league’s best run-blocking lines. That’s at least from an advanced metric perspective, including average rush yards over expected. From a traditional yards per carry lens, his 4.6 was fine. That’s the complaint. The positive, of course, is that Swift is a weapon-ish player capable of contributing on all three downs as the Bears ready to welcome phenom QB Caleb Williams. Swift will definitely remain in the RB2 mix in fantasy. His arrival is real bad news for Khalil Herbert and Roschon Johnson.
