Entering the 2022 season, hope and potential for Detroit Lions running back D’Andre Swift was sky-high. Swift’s blend of agility, acceleration and pass-catching ability seemed like a great fit for new offensive coordinator Ben Johnson’s diverse attack.
Things started off swimmingly for Swift. In Detroit’s Week 1 loss to the Eagles, Swift ran for a career-high 144 yards on only 15 carries. The third-year back also added three receptions for 31 yards. All those first-round picks in fantasy football drafts seemed shrewdly valuable.
