D'Andre Swift News
Thursday, October 8, 12:13 PM
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (hip, knee) returned to practice Thursday on a limited basis, according to Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune. Swift has played through injuries before this season, but his health isn't the only thing fantasy managers have to consider heading into Sunday's matchup with Green Bay. He lost a fumble in the third quarter against the Jets last week and didn't receive another touch, finishing with 58 rushing yards on 15 carries. Kyle Monangai wound up handling 30 attempts and scored twice. Swift still leads the backfield with 69 carries for 311 yards and three touchdowns through four games, and he's added 10 catches for 84 yards. Getting back on the practice field is encouraging. How Chicago divides the work after last week's game is a separate question, particularly with Monangai having made a strong case for more carries.

Zach Charbonnet News
Wednesday, October 7, 8:53 PM
Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (knee) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday as the team begins preparing for Week 5 against the San Francisco 49ers, according to John Boyle of the team's official website. Charbonnet tore his ACL in the playoffs last year, and he didn't quite recover in time for the season opener, so the Seahawks placed him on the PUP list to start the year. Now that he has missed the minimum four games, he's eligible to be activated. The Seahawks definitely don't have to activate him this week if they don't think he's ready, but it's worth noting that Seattle is actively looking to improve its backfield. After placing rookie Jadarian Price (chest) on injured reserve last week, the Seahawks tried to sign Joe Mixon to their practice squad, but the deal didn't progress beyond a physical. Getting Charbonnet back from injury would help answer the running back questions for Seattle, which gave a total of 32 touches to Emanuel Wilson and George Holani last week. Upon his return, Charbonnet would occupy the lead-back role, ranking as an RB2 in fantasy football.
