Who Should I Start? D'Andre Swift or Rachaad White

Sunday, October 19, 11:23 PM

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift is on a roll as the team's feature back. In the 26-14 win over the visiting New Orleans Saints on Sunday in Week 7, Swift carried the ball a season-high 19 times and ran for a season-high 124 yards while also scoring his third rushing touchdown of the year. He added one catch on his only target for a 14-yard gain. The Bears leaned heavily on their backfield in this one, with rookie Kyle Monongai also seeing 13 carries that he took for 81 yards and a touchdown. The 26-year-old Swift was extremely efficient with his opportunities against New Orleans, and he's been a big part of head coach Ben Johnson's offense all year, seeing at least 12 rushing attempts in all six of his games so far in 2025. The Bears have now won four games in a row and will look to make it five in Week 8 against the Baltimore Ravens. Swift will look to make it three straight 100-yard rushing games in that contest against the Ravens' suspect defense.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White is expected to make his third straight start during the Week 7 matchup against the Detroit Lions. The Bucs are going to be without Bucky Irving (foot) for at least one more game. White has stepped up and played well in the absence of Irving. He has rushed for over 100 yards with three touchdowns over the last two games. Given the Bucs shorthanded offense, White figures to once again have a significant role in the offense on Monday night. This team is already without Jalen McMillan (neck) and Chris Godwin (leg), but might also be missing Mike Evans (hamstring) and Emeka Egbuka (hamstring) in Week 7. That being said, White could be asked to do more receiving work than normal. The 26-year-old figures to be heavily involved and should be a solid RB2 for this Week 7 contest.
