- D'Andre Swift scores three times on Monday Night Football
Chicago Bears RB D'Andre Swift ran the ball 27 times for 69 yards and three touchdowns versus the Seattle Seahawks in Week 8. He added a pair of receptions for 10 yards.
Why It Matters:Swift averaged just 2.6 yards per carry against a tough Seahawks front -- his longest gain was seven yards -- but he ran hard, particularly in the red zone, and scored three touchdowns in a game for the second time this season. That gives Swift an NFL-leading 10 rushing touchdowns, one more than Josh Allen. He's been asked the shoulder the load while Kyle Monangai (toe) works his way back from injury, and it's fair to wonder how much he'll left in the tank as the season wears on. It casts some doubt over Swift's long-term value. So, despite his propensity for finding the end zone, Swift shouldn't be viewed as more than an RB2, and there's some merit in seeing if you can sell high on the veteran before Monangai returns.
