Who Should I Start? D'Andre Swift or Ashton Jeanty

Tuesday, October 14, 12:09 AM

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift gashed Washington for 108 yards on 14 carries and added two catches (three targets) for 67 yards through the air on Monday night, including a 57-yard touchdown. Swift was efficient on his carries all night as the Bears consistently used him on outside runs and got him into space. His 108 rushing yards were his most in a game since last season against Washington, when he ran for 129 yards on 18 carries. The 26-year-old entered the night averaging just 3.3 yards per carry, but more than doubled that with an impressive 7.7 yards per attempt in this game. This breakout performance could signal better days for Swift in the future, and he'll rank in RB2 territory for Week 7 against the Saints.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty recorded a season-high 23 rush attempts for 75 yards and a touchdown in their 20-10 win over the Titans in Week 6. Head coach Pete Carroll spoke on Wednesday regarding the workload for his star rookie running back and said that he hopes that is the norm for him moving forward. Jeanty has topped 20 carries twice this season, including a career-high performance in Week 4 against the Bears, when he rushed for 138 yards and scored three total touchdowns. He hasn't been very efficient running behind a poor run-blocking offensive line, but his touch volume ranks among the highest at the position. Jeanty will rank as a low-end RB1 in Week 7 against the Chiefs.
