D’Andre Swift was limited during practice on Wednesday, and it looks like he will be available for the Chicago Bears this weekend against the Pittsburgh Steelers. On Thursday, he was upgraded to a full participant in the team’s practice, almost completely confirming that he will be available on Sunday.

Swift has been carrying a hip injury since Week 4 of this season, when the Bears defeated the Las Vegas Raiders 25-24. Since then, he has been listed with a hip issue in each week’s injury report and has been routinely limited in practice.
He has also been dealing with a quad injury since Week 3 and developed a groin injury in Week 7. It was the latter injury that led to him missing Week 9’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
What Happened to D’Andre Swift?
Swift has been carrying a plethora of injuries this season, developing a quad injury and a hip injury in Weeks 3 and 4, respectively. He then picked up a groin injury in Week 7, which kept him off the field against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 9. He has been routinely limited in practice and has been mentioned in each week’s injury report.
None of the injuries were due to a single incident, but rather they’re chronic issues the team and player are managing as they go.
Is D’Andre Swift Playing Week 12?
It seems like he is. While he was limited in practice on Wednesday once again, he was upgraded to a full participant in the team’s practice on Thursday. There are no further details on the status of his multiple injuries, but his full participation in the practice signals that he will be available on Sunday.
D’Andre Swift Fantasy Outlook
Despite his injuries, the running back has been productive this season for the Bears. In total, he has 634 yards, with four touchdowns in 134 carries. The only thing fantasy players should have in mind is that teammate Kyle Monangai might take away some points from Swift. Whether one or the other will be more productive this weekend, it’s impossible to know. The choice is a toss-up, and it’s up to each player to decide.
