D'Andre Swift News

D'Andre Swift Limited on Wednesday

Wednesday, September 17, 4:08 PM

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (quadriceps) was limited during Wednesday's practice due to a quadriceps injury. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status during the week in case this injury begins to linger. However, seeing him open the week in limited capacity should not put him in danger of missing their Week 3 clash against the Dallas Cowboys. Through the first two weeks of the season, Swift has operated as the clear workhorse back of the Chicago backfield, taking 29 carries for 116 yards and a score. Through the air, Swift has seen eight targets and brought in six receptions for 18yards. If Swift were to be limited in Week 3, fantasy managers should expect rookie Kyle Monangai to take on a larger workload.

Jonathan Taylor News

Jonathan Taylor Tops 200 Yards From Scrimmage in Week 2 Win

Sunday, September 14, 9:09 PM

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor had a monster game in his team's Week 2 win over the Denver Broncos. The 26-year-old logged 25 carries for 165 yards and also caught two passes for 50 yards and a touchdown. Across the first two games of the season, Taylor has now recorded 313 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown on 48 total touches. The Colts' offense has been surprisingly effective so far overall, dropping 33 points on the Miami Dolphins in Week 1 and 29 on Denver in Week 2. Taylor is a must-start fantasy running back with high-end RB1 upside as long as he stays healthy and the Indianapolis offense remains competent.
