D'Andre Swift News
Saturday, June 13, 12:21 PM
Across 16 games in 2025, Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift recorded 1,386 scrimmage yards and 10 touchdowns on 257 touches. Swift has been one of the NFL's more consistent backs in recent years, as he's now logged three consecutive seasons with at least 16 games played, 250 touches, and 1,260 yards from scrimmage. However, Swift's usage in Chicago declined a bit down the stretch of the 2025 season thanks to the emergence of Bears running back Kyle Monangai. From Week 11 through Week 18, neither Swift nor Monangai played more than 60% or fewer than 40% of Chicago's offensive snaps. Entering 2026, the two backs appear set to both play significant roles in the Bears' offense. With Swift entering his age-27 season and the final year of his current contract, Monangai may profile as the future of the running back position in Chicago. In dynasty formats, managers may want to explore selling high on Swift ahead of a possible production decline in 2026.

Jonathan Taylor News
Friday, June 12, 8:10 AM
Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor put together a dominant year in 2025, recording 1,963 yards from scrimmage and 20 touchdowns on 369 touches. The 27-year-old averaged 4.9 yards per carry while also setting career-highs in targets (55), receptions (46), and receiving yards (378). Entering 2026, Taylor once again projects as the focal point of a Colts offense that will get quarterback Daniel Jones (Achilles) back from the Achilles injury that ended his 2025 season prematurely. However, fantasy managers may have a reason to be concerned about Taylor's ability to hold up after shouldering such a large workload last season. After recording 372 touches in 2021, Taylor proceeded to miss 16 games over a three-season span between 2022 and 2024. He also has a history of recurring ankle injuries, which could easily pop back up in 2026. While Taylor is still a high-level fantasy running back, dynasty managers may want to explore selling high on him for a monstrous package ahead of 2026.
