D'Andre Swift Week 2 Outlook - Bears at Texans

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Sep 12th 2024, 1:05pm EDT

Swift finished Week 1 as the RB44 in fantasy, playing 70% of the snaps with ten touches and 30 total yards. It's a small sample, but his tackle-breaking is a mild concern. Among 34 backs in Week 1, he ranked 21st in missed tackles forced per attempt and 18th in yards after contact per attempt. Houston should put the clamps on Swift in Week 2. Against this run defense in Week 1, Jonathan Taylor only had 3.0 yards per carry and 48 rushing yards. Last year, Houston allowed the sixth-lowest explosive run rate and the 14th-lowest fantasy points per game, and it managed the third-highest stuff rate.
