Who Should I Start? Derrick Henry or D'Andre Swift

Friday, October 31, 12:48 AM

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry rushed for 119 yards on 19 carries during Thursday's Week 9 win over the Miami Dolphins. He also converted his lone target into a two-yard reception. Henry had a relatively underwhelming four-week stretch earlier in the season, but he has suddenly bounced back with three terrific showings. Over his last three contests, he has totaled 64 carries, 312 rushing yards, and two touchdowns, as well as a pair of receptions. He's firmly back in RB1 territory ahead of a favorable Week 10 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings.

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin) has yet to practice this week and missed a second straight practice on Thursday due to a groin injury that he's been battling. Swift has played through a groin injury for the last couple of weeks, but he hasn't had two straight missed practices to begin the week, which means he could finally be in danger of missing a game this Sunday versus the Cincinnati Bengals. Fantasy managers looking for RB help should immediately run to the waiver wire and see if rookie Kyle Monangai is available, as he would likely take on lead-back duties for the Bears this weekend if Swift is out or limited at all. The 26-year-old Swift has been a must-start RB in fantasy this year as the focal point of Chicago's offense, but his status is in peril this week. In addition to Swift not practicing yet this week, RB Roschon Johnson (back) also has two straight DNPs.
