The most likely of the three outcomes is that D'Andre Swift stays the lead back. Chicago signed him to a three-year extension worth up to $33.75 million two days before the opener, effectively committing to him through 2029. Even after the uneven Jets game, he is on pace for about 1,322 rushing yards, which would top his career best.
