Making his first NFL start in relief of D'Andre Swift, Kyle Monangai had a banner day, piling up 198 yards of offense and dominating Chicago's backfield in the Bears' 47-42 victory over the Bengals. The seventh-round rookie carried 26 times for 176 yards (6.2 yards per carry) and produced 106 yards after contact.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Bengals. He's been battling this groin issue for a few weeks now. It either got worse over the last week, or the team finally decided to get him some rest. We'll see if he makes it back for Week 10. RB Roschon Johnson (back) is also out for this Sunday, leaving Kyle Monangai and Travis Homer as the healthy RB on the active roster. RB Brittain Brown is on the practice squad. Homer doesn't have a touch on offense this season, while Monangai's role has been growing in recent weeks. The rookie is a good bet to handle most of the backfield work in this matchup against Cincinnati's 32nd-ranked RB defense.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) missed his second straight practice on Thursday. That's a downgrade from last week, when he missed Wednesday but returned to a limited practice on Thursday. We'll see if Swift gets on the field tomorrow, ahead of Sunday's game vs. the Bengals. His absence in that one would leave rookie RB Kyle Monangai in a big role. RB Roschon Johnson (back) has remained sidelined this week after missing last Sunday's game.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) is active for today’s game vs. the Ravens. He only got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday, but Swift played and produced well through this injury last week. He’s safe to keep in fantasy lineups as a RB2.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) is expected to play vs. the Ravens today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Swift only got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday, but he played well through this groin issue last week. We're expecting him to be ready for his usual role today. Swift got a bump up the RB rankings when QB Lamar Jackson was ruled out. The Bears are now only 2.5-point underdogs -- down from seven earlier in the week.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) is listed as questionable to play vs. the Ravens this weekend. He got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday. Swift was in a similar boat last week and ended up playing his usual role vs. the Saints, racking up 138 yards and a score. We’re expecting Swift to be fine for the Ravens game but will get Chicago’s inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday. RB Roschon Johnson (back) has been ruled out, which would leave Kyle Monangai as the clear lead back if Swift were to miss this one.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. He should be fine for this weekend's game vs. the Ravens, but we'll see how Swift is listed on the final injury report tomorrow.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) did not practice on Wednesday. He played through this issue last week, so we're expecting him to be ready for Sunday's game vs. the Ravens. But his status bears monitoring over the next few days. RB Kyle Monangai would be in for a big workload if Swift was unable to play this weekend.

Bears rookie RB Kyle Monangai excelled as the No. 2 RB against the Saints. He went 13-81-1 on the ground and 2-13-0 through the air. Starting RB D’Andre Swift went 19-124-1 on the ground and 1-14-0 through the air. With HC Ben Johnson’s history of using two backs in Detroit, Monangai could become the David Montgomery to Swift’s Jahmyr Gibbs in terms of usage (though neither is as talented as their Lions’ counterparts).

Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) is active for today’s game vs. the Saints. He was added to the injury report on Thursday, limited again in Friday’s practice, and then listed as questionable. Swift said Friday that he’d play, though, and there never seemed to be much doubt about his status for this one. Swift is safe to keep in Week 7 fantasy lineups.

The forecast for today's Saints-Bears game calls for winds of 15 mph with gusts around 30. That's enough to impact the passing and kicking games. We've made some projection docks to both passing games, although guys like QB Caleb Williams and WRs Rome Odunze and Chris Olave can remain in fantasy lineups. Avoid both kickers in this game. The over/under in this one has dropped from 46.5 to 44.5.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift (groin) is expected to play vs. the Saints today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Update: HC Ben Johnson said he's "hopeful" that Swift will be able to play vs. the Saints. Swift said that he'll play, per ESPN's Courtney Cronin, adding that the limited practices were just maintenance.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift was added to the injury report and limited in practice on Thursday with a groin issue. He played through hip and quad injuries earlier this season, although it's unclear if this is related. We'll look for further updates on Swift and see if he gets back on the practice field tomorrow. His absence vs. the Saints this weekend would leave rookie Kyle Monangai as the likely lead back, with RB Roschon Johnson also picking up more work.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift racked up 108 yards on 14 carries in Monday night's win over the Commanders. Washington's defense entered the night fifth-best in rush DVOA and adjusted fantasy points allowed to RBs, which made Swift's 7.7 yards per carry especially notable. Rookie Kyle Monangai followed with a 5-19 rushing line, while Roschon Johnson claimed the other RB carry (for 6 yards). QB Caleb Williams produced the team's only rushing score, from a yard out. Swift added a 55-yard receiving TD to drive a 2-67-1 receiving line on three targets.
