D'Andre Swift Scores In Preseason Opener

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift rushed four times for 20 yards and one touchdown during Friday's preseason loss to the Atlanta Falcons. As expected, all of his reps came with the starters on the opening drive. Swift amassed 617 rushing yards, 452 receiving yards, and seven total touchdowns en route to finishing as the RB15 last season. He missed some time due to injury, but assuming he stays healthy and sees the bulk of the workload over Jamaal Williams, he could finish as a low-end RB1 in 2022.

Lions To Monitor D'Andre Swift's Camp Usage

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell told reporters on Friday that the team will be "smart with" starting running back D'Andre Swift and will monitor his usage in training camp to make sure he's healthy enough through the regular season. Swift has missed at least three games in both of his NFL seasons so far, but he reportedly bulked up in the offseason in order to give him a better shot at staying healthy throughout the season. When healthy, though, the 23-year-old has been solid for the Lions, rushing for 1,138 yards and 13 touchdowns on 265 carries (4.3 yards per tote) in his two seasons. He's also added 108 receptions for 809 yards and four more TDs on 135 targets. Even though some may consider him injury-prone, Swift is an easy top-10 fantasy RB entering his third year.

D'Andre Swift Showcases Receiving Skills

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift showcased his receiving skills at mandatory minicamp last week, and he looks stronger this year but hasn't lost any of his shiftiness. Swift is extremely smooth as a pass-catcher and is a matchup nightmare for the defense when he's in space in the passing attack. The 23-year-old was leading all running backs last year in catches last year before missing five games late last season with a shoulder injury. With the Lions being improved on the outside at wide receiver, it should open things up even more for Swift and tight end T.J. Hockenson to get favorable one-on-one matchups in the middle of the field. Swift should once again be a big part of the passing game in 2022, giving him clear RB1 upside, especially in PPR leagues.

D'Andre Swift Looks Bigger This Offseason

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift looks to have bulked up this offseason. Swift's goal this offseason was to add more muscle in order to take some of the big hits that kept him out of four games in his rookie season with a sprained shoulder. The 23-year-old has the skills to be Detroit's featured back, but Jamaal Williams, Craig Reynolds, Greg Bell and Jermar Jefferson will be fighting to steal touches away. In 13 games in 2021, Swift had 213 touches and finished with 1,059 scrimmage yards and seven touchdowns. Other than a 33-carry game against the Steelers, Swift never saw 15 carries in a single game, although he proved plenty valuable for his pass-catching skills. With added offensive weapons in receivers Jameson Williams, D.J. Chark Jr. and Josh Reynolds, Swift could see fewer targets in the passing game.
