Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.
Bears rookie RB Kyle Monangai excelled as the No. 2 RB against the Saints. He went 13-81-1 on the ground and 2-13-0 through the air. Starting RB D’Andre Swift went 19-124-1 on the ground and 1-14-0 through the air. With HC Ben Johnson’s history of using two backs in Detroit, Monangai could become the David Montgomery to Swift’s Jahmyr Gibbs in terms of usage (though neither is as talented as their Lions’ counterparts).
Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) is active for today’s game vs. the Saints. He was added to the injury report on Thursday, limited again in Friday’s practice, and then listed as questionable. Swift said Friday that he’d play, though, and there never seemed to be much doubt about his status for this one. Swift is safe to keep in Week 7 fantasy lineups.
The forecast for today's Saints-Bears game calls for winds of 15 mph with gusts around 30. That's enough to impact the passing and kicking games. We've made some projection docks to both passing games, although guys like QB Caleb Williams and WRs Rome Odunze and Chris Olave can remain in fantasy lineups. Avoid both kickers in this game. The over/under in this one has dropped from 46.5 to 44.5.
Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) is expected to play vs. the Saints today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Swift was added to the injury report on Thursday, limited again in Friday’s practice, and listed as questionable. But both he and HC Ben Johnson expressed optimism about his availability for this one on Friday. Swift is fine to keep in Week 7 fantasy lineups.
Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Saints. He was added to the injury report on Thursday and limited again in Friday’s practice. We’ll look for further updates on Swift and get Chicago’s inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday. His absence would leave rookie Kyle Monangai as the Bears’ likely lead back.
Update: HC Ben Johnson said he's "hopeful" that Swift will be able to play vs. the Saints. Swift said that he'll play, per ESPN's Courtney Cronin, adding that the limited practices were just maintenance.
Bears RB D'Andre Swift was added to the injury report and limited in practice on Thursday with a groin issue. He played through hip and quad injuries earlier this season, although it's unclear if this is related. We'll look for further updates on Swift and see if he gets back on the practice field tomorrow. His absence vs. the Saints this weekend would leave rookie Kyle Monangai as the likely lead back, with RB Roschon Johnson also picking up more work.
Bears RB D'Andre Swift racked up 108 yards on 14 carries in Monday night's win over the Commanders. Washington's defense entered the night fifth-best in rush DVOA and adjusted fantasy points allowed to RBs, which made Swift's 7.7 yards per carry especially notable. Rookie Kyle Monangai followed with a 5-19 rushing line, while Roschon Johnson claimed the other RB carry (for 6 yards). QB Caleb Williams produced the team's only rushing score, from a yard out. Swift added a 55-yard receiving TD to drive a 2-67-1 receiving line on three targets.
Bears RB D’Andre Swift (hip) is active for today’s game vs. the Raiders. He was limited in practice all week and listed as questionable. But Swift was in the same boat last week before playing his usual role. Swift remains a lower-end RB2 in fantasy lineups.
Bears RB D’Andre Swift (hip) is expected to play vs. the Raiders today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Swift is listed as questionable after a limited week of practice. But he played his usual role despite a questionable listing with a quad injury last week, and we're expecting the same today. Swift is a fine RB2 play in a potential shootout.
Bears RB D’Andre Swift (hip) is questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Raiders after a limited week of practice. He played his usual role despite a questionable listing last week, although that was with a quad injury. We’re expecting Swift to play this Sunday, but we’ll look for further updates on his status. Swift’s absence would leave rookie Kyle Monangai as Chicago’s likely lead back, with Roschon Johnson the No. 2.
Bears RB D’Andre Swift (quad) is active for today’s game vs. the Cowboys. He was limited in practice all week and listed as questionable, but we never sensed any concern about his status for this one. Swift is a solid RB2 play in this potential shootout.
Bears RB D'Andre Swift (quad) is expected to play vs. the Cowboys on Sunday, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Swift is listed as questionable, but he got in three limited practices this week and never seemed to be in danger of missing this one. Swift has dominated Bears backfield work so far, totaling 29 carries and eight targets in two games. That makes him a solid RB2 play in this likely shootout against Dallas.
Bears RB D’Andre Swift (quad) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Cowboys. He was limited in practice all week. We’ve seen nothing to suggest that Swift is in danger of missing this one, but we’ll look for more info on his status. Swift’s absence would leave Chicago’s backfield to Kyle Monangai and Roschon Johnson.
Bears RB Roschon Johnson was officially active for Sunday's game against the Lions, but you wouldn't know it from the box score. Johnson logged zero touches in his return after going inactive for the opener because of a foot injury. Rookie RB Kyle Monangai, meanwhile, carried seven times for 28 yards and caught one of three targets for 8 yards as the clear No. 2 back behind D'Andre Swift. The starter posted a 12-63-1 rushing line and caught all three of his targets for 6 yards.
Bears RB Roschon Johnson (foot) is not listed on the final Week 2 injury report. He’ll make his 2025 debut vs. the Lions on Sunday. We’ll see how work is split between Johnson and RB Kyle Monangai behind lead back D’Andre Swift. HC Ben Johnson notably said this week that he’d like to get Monangai more work. Neither guy is a Week 2 fantasy option, but don’t expect Swift to play as big a role as he did in Week 1.
D'Andre Swift was the only Bears' RB to carry the ball in Monday's 27-24 loss versus Minnesota. However, Swift looked slow, churning out just 51 yards on 17 rushes (3.1 YPC). He also caught 3 of his 5 targets for 12 yards.
