I’m D’Andre Swift had somewhat of a down game in Week 11 at Minnesota, but he should bounce back this week against Pittsburgh. I still plan to use Swift as a No. 2 Fantasy running back in the majority of leagues.
Swift had 21 carries against the Vikings for 90 yards, which is respectable, but he had no touchdowns and no catches on just one target. Kyle Monangai scored a rushing touchdown against Minnesota, and Swift’s five-game streak of scoring at least 14.8 PPR points came to an end.
He doesn’t have an easy matchup against the Steelers in Week 12, but four running backs in the past five games have scored at least 12 PPR points against Pittsburgh, including two in a row with Kimani Vidal in Week 10 and Chase Brown in Week 11. Swift also has at least 18 total touches in three of his past four games.
While Monangai’s uptick in workload has become a problem for Swift, including scoring a touchdown in each of the past two games, I’m still confident in Swift in this contest. This is the type of game where the Bears should lean on him, and Swift has top-15 upside in the majority of leagues.
