But after his best season in the NFL, the Bears are committing to Swift, even after selecting Kyle Monangai — who had a strong rookie campaign — in the seventh round of last year's draft. Monangai recorded 169 carries for 783 rushing yards and five touchdowns on the ground, while adding 18 catches for 164 yards and a receiving TD.

Monangai's strong rookie season (783 yards) doesn't change Swift's lead-back role.

Kyle Monangai, selected by the Bears in the seventh round of the 2024 draft, had a strong rookie campaign with 169 carries for 783 rushing yards and five touchdowns, plus 18 catches for 164 yards and a receiving touchdown. Despite Monangai's productive rookie season, the Bears committed to D'Andre Swift with a three-year, $33.75 million extension, signaling Swift remains the primary back and Monangai will operate in a complementary role in the Chicago backfield.
