Travis Homer Fantasy Overview

Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Bengals. He's been battling this groin issue for a few weeks now. It either got worse over the last week, or the team finally decided to get him some rest. We'll see if he makes it back for Week 10. RB Roschon Johnson (back) is also out for this Sunday, leaving Kyle Monangai and Travis Homer as the healthy RB on the active roster. RB Brittain Brown is on the practice squad. Homer doesn't have a touch on offense this season, while Monangai's role has been growing in recent weeks. The rookie is a good bet to handle most of the backfield work in this matchup against Cincinnati's 32nd-ranked RB defense.

The Bears have signed RB Royce Freeman. He last played for the Rams in 2023.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game vs. the Vikings. He only got in a limited practice on Saturday but said afterward that he expects to play against Minnesota. The late kickoff makes it a tricky situation for fantasy owners, though. RB Roschon Johnson (concussion) is out for Week 15, so Swift's absence would leave the backfield to RBs Travis Homer and Darrynton Evans. If you're considering those two for Swift insurance, we'd lean toward Homer.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) did not practice on Thursday. It's a new injury for Swift, who missed the first two practices last week with a quad. RB Roschon Johnson (concussion) was also sidelined on Thursday. We'll see if these guys get back on the field tomorrow, ahead of Monday night's game vs. the Vikings. Desperate fantasy owners could stash RB Travis Homer, who'd be the lead back if Swift and Johnson miss the Monday nighter.
