Who Should I Start? D'Andre Swift or Zach Charbonnet

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift gashed Washington for 108 yards on 14 carries and added two catches (three targets) for 67 yards through the air on Monday night, including a 57-yard touchdown. Swift was efficient on his carries all night as the Bears consistently used him on outside runs and got him into space. His 108 rushing yards were his most in a game since last season against Washington, when he ran for 129 yards on 18 carries. The 26-year-old entered the night averaging just 3.3 yards per carry, but more than doubled that with an impressive 7.7 yards per attempt in this game. This breakout performance could signal better days for Swift in the future, and he'll rank in RB2 territory for Week 7 against the Saints.

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet is a touchdown-dependent flex option in Week 6 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Charbonnet has taken firm control over Seattle's goal line running back role, but his general efficiency has been atrocious. Charbonnet is averaging 2.75 yards per carry this season. He has yet to exceed 4.0 yards per carry in a game this year. However, Seattle's offense has been very effective in 2025, which has provided Charbonnet with plenty of chances to score this season. He is still splitting time with fellow running back Kenneth Walker III, which taps both of their ceilings. The Jaguars are the No. 18 team against opposing running backs in fantasy. There should be enough work to go around for both running backs to be fantasy relevant this week. Still, Charbonnet is a risky play if he does not find the end zone, given his relative lack of involvement in the passing game.
