D'Andre Swift Could Have Expanded Role in 2026

Friday, August 7, 5:25 AM

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift ran for a career-high 1,087 yards and nine touchdowns in 2025, but in catching a career-low 34 passes, head coach Ben Johnson views that as an area where he can still get his lead back more involved. Swift earned 148 targets in his two seasons with Johnson at passing game coordinator and offensive coordinator in Detroit, and while praising Swift as a runner, Johnson recently told reporters he wants to "continue to look at and challenge him" on receiving opportunities. How many opportunities will truly present themselves in an offense with Luther Burden III, Rome Odunze, and Colston Loveland is a question for debate, but even a modest increase to his receiving production could push Swift into RB1 territory after a top 15 finish in 2025.

TreVeyon Henderson Still Has Work to Do in Patriots Backfield

Wednesday, August 12, 11:18 AM

New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson still has some details to clean up as he enters his second season. Boston Sports Journal believes Rhamondre Stevenson has been the more dependable option between the tackles and on passing downs this summer, specifically pointing to Henderson's blitz pickup, vision and patience. Head coach Mike Vrabel offered a more encouraging assessment, saying some of those reads are starting to slow down for Henderson as he gets better at understanding what a run could look like a few strides after the snap. Henderson was explosive as a rookie, rushing for 911 yards and nine touchdowns on 180 carries while adding 35 catches for 221 yards and another score. His role did shrink during New England's playoff run, when Stevenson handled considerably more of the offensive snaps. Henderson's speed and big-play ability aren't the issue. If the processing and protection continue to improve, there should be more ways for the Patriots to keep him on the field in 2026.
