Who Should I Start? D'Andre Swift or Chuba Hubbard

Sunday, September 28, 3:32 PM

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (hip) is officially active for Sunday's Week 4 contest against the Las Vegas Raiders. He was listed as questionable after being a limited participant in practice. Swift has delivered modest production through the first three games of the season, amassing 143 rushing yards, 69 receiving yards, and one touchdown. He ranks as the 24th-best running back in terms of fantasy scoring but should really be viewed as a mid-to-low RB3/flex, especially given that his snap share has declined since Week 1. We could see more Kyle Monangai on Sunday, but Swift will still be the primary option.

It's not looking great for Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard (calf) playing in Week 6 against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday after he wasn't seen in uniform for Thursday's practice, according to ESPN's David Newton. Hubbard did not play in the Week 5 contest versus the Miami Dolphins and also did not practice on Wednesday, so he's certainly trending toward missing a second straight game this weekend. If the 26-year-old is not able to practice at all on Friday, he'll almost certainly be ruled out on the final injury report of the week. With Hubbard out of action last Sunday, Rico Dowdle stepped into the lead role in Carolina and dominated Miami, going for 23 carries for 206 yards and a touchdown while adding three catches for 28 yards. If Hubbard misses a second straight game, Dowdle will be a must-start in all fantasy lineups against his former team, the Cowboys.
