D'Andre Swift Could See Expanded Role
4 years agoDetroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift may have earned himself an expanded role in the offense after a strong performance in Week 6. The appropriately-named Swift broke out in a big way against the Jaguars, totaling 116 rushing yards on 14 carries with two touchdowns scored. Veteran Adrian Peterson is the starter, though it seems like a matter of time before Swift grabs the bull by the horns and becomes the starter. The rookie should be in all lineups, as he's in another smash spot against a Falcons Defense surrendering the ninth-most fantasy points to opposing running backs.
