D'Andre Swift Has No Injury Designation for Week 4

Friday, October 2, 11:38 AM

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (knee) is off the final injury report after a brief scare Thursday. Swift was added to the report with the knee issue and did not practice, but Courtney Cronin of ESPN reported that he returned as a full participant Friday and has no game designation for Sunday's matchup with the New York Jets. Swift is coming off 20 carries for 84 yards in Monday night's win over Philadelphia, and he also caught two passes for four yards. He has 253 rushing yards and three touchdowns through three games. Kyle Monangai has stayed involved behind him, but Swift has led Chicago in carries every week so far. RotoBaller ranks him as RB15 for Week 4. Friday's full practice puts Swift back on track to handle his usual role Sunday.

Malik Washington News

Malik Washington Set for a Big Workload

Saturday, October 3, 3:32 AM

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Malik Washington will likely get plenty of work in Week 4 when the Dolphins visit the Vikings in a difficult matchup. Rookie receiver Caleb Douglas (ankle) will miss a second straight game, leaving Washington as the clear No. 1 receiver. Last week without Douglas, Washington caught five of his 10 targets from QB Malik Willis for 56 yards and added five more yards on two carries. He has a 27.1% target share, which ranks 11th in the NFL and leads the team in routes run by a wide margin. He hasn't found the end zone yet this season or reached 60 receiving yards in any contest. However, he should continue to draw plenty of attention, and his volume gives him both a high ceiling and a high floor, even in Miami's struggling offense. He's still only the WR42 in RotoBaller's Week 4 rankings, though, which makes him a fringe FLEX option in most formats.
