From the article

Swift is clearly the lead dog in that backfield and showed last year he can make the explosive plays Johnson loves out of this offense more consistently than anyone in the room.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Swift locked in as lead back with majority of run and pass game touches.

Swift is the clear lead back in the Bears backfield heading into 2026, with Kyle Monangai serving as change-of-pace back and rookie Zavion Thomas getting minimal carries. The Bears' run-game-first offensive philosophy under Johnson, combined with Swift's demonstrated ability to make explosive plays, ensures he will carry the majority of the load in both run and pass game unless a major trade occurs.
