Who Should I Start? D'Andre Swift or CeeDee Lamb

Monday, January 6, 8:30 AM

The Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift saw plenty of chances out of the backfield in Week 18's 24-22 victory over the Green Bay Packers. The 25-year-old rusher saw 20 rushing attempts, though he was inefficient with those opportunities as he accumulated only 65 rushing yards. Swift added a rushing touchdown in his game, which helped bolster his production. Swift was targeted twice but was unable to reel in both targets. The former Georgia Bulldog played every game in 2024, a first in his career, and saw at least 10 touches in each game for the Bears. Swift had his least efficient, though most involved, season in his career as he had 253 carries for 959 rushing yards and six rushing touchdowns while hauling in 42 receptions for 386 receiving yards on the year. Swift has a solid opportunity to continue to build on his touches in 2025, depending on who the head coach will be for the Bears.

According to the team, the Dallas Cowboys have placed wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) on the injured reserve, officially ending his 2024 season. Earlier this week, the Cowboys announced that Lamb would miss the remainder of the season. The 25-year-old has delt with a lingering AC joint injury throughout the season. Lamb will finish the campaign with 101 receptions, 1,194 yards and six scores. He added 70 yards on 14 attempts. Over his past three games, Lamb was very productive averaging 21.4 PPR points per game. As a result, fantasy managers should expect Brandin Cooks, Jalen Tolbert, and Jake Ferguson to lead the passing attack during the final two weeks of the season. Ferguson should be viewed as a low-end TE1 this weekend while Cooks and Tolbert enter flex territory in deeper formats.
