Video: Everything Just Changed - Week 5
DeAndre Swift didn't play at the end of the game...Ben Johnson comes out in the press conference and he just essentially says, 'Oh, he's not injured.' A wink and a nod saying they benched him because of the fumble.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Benched Week 5 for fumble; Bears shifting to RB committee.

Swift didn't play at the end of Week 5 and was benched by the Bears coaching staff for a fumble, not due to injury; Ben Johnson indicated in the press conference that Swift is not injured, signaling a shift away from his Week 1 usage and toward a running back by committee approach.
