D'Andre Swift on fumbles: That's not me

Bears running back D Andre Swift has struggled with fumbling the ball, committing four errors in his first 33 games since joining the team. However, his performance has improved somewhat in the current season. In last Sunday's victory against the Jets, Swift fumbled twice, one of which occurred during the third quarter. Head coach Ben Johnson labeled Swift's performance as "egregious" due to the manner in which he was holding the ball.

In response, Swift was substituted out for the remainder of the game. Swift, when questioned about the benching, remarked that it was not a significant discussion, but acknowledged the consequences of turnovers. He added, "I’ll take whatever comes with that." Swift committed to ensuring that such mistakes won't recur. "I know that’s not me," he stated via Dan Wiederer of TheAthletic.com.

"That’s not a part of my game. It hasn’t been. So I’m not about to make it one. That’s over with now." The Bears have not disclosed their running back strategy for their upcoming match against the Packers on Sunday. However, Swift's potential return may be contingent on his recovery from injuries. Monangai has missed this week's practice due to thumb and toe injuries, leaving Swift with a possible opportunity to demonstrate his progress by default.
