Who Should I Start? D'Andre Swift or Jonathan Taylor

Sunday, October 26, 11:46 AM

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin) is officially active for Sunday's contest against the Baltimore Ravens. The lead running back carried a questionable tag into this game with a groin injury. However, he was able to progress enough to suit up. Swift followed a similar practice pattern last weekend as well and enjoyed a dominant showing against the Saints, totaling a season-best 124 yards and a score on 19 attempts. Fantasy managers should view Swift as a solid RB2 with upside in all formats, facing a Baltimore defense that has allowed the second-most PPR points to opposing RBs this season.

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor continued his dominant season with a monster showing in his team's 38-14 Week 8 victory over the Tennessee Titans. Taylor recorded 12 carries for 153 yards and two touchdowns, adding two catches for 21 yards and a receiving score as well. The 26-year-old running back is arguably on an MVP pace so far this season. Through eight games, Taylor has recorded 850 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns on 143 carries as well as 206 receiving yards and two touchdowns on 25 catches. He's the engine of a dominant Colts offense that is currently averaging over 30 points per game. Indianapolis will travel to Pittsburgh to take on the Steelers in Week 9. As long as Taylor is healthy, he profiles as a must-start fantasy running back every week.
