When Chicago Bears running back D’Andre Swift went to practice toward the end of training camp last week, he knew not to look for help.

That was quickly reinforced near the start of practice. Swift took a snap from quarterback Caleb Williams as they practiced their handoffs. Backup quarterbacks Tyson Bagent and Case Keenum instead gave their handoffs to members of the coaching staff.

“Just got my work in today,” Swift told reporters at Halas Hall in Lake Forest at the time. “It was a good conditioning day, put it like that.”

It was a small running back room for the Bears today. Just one! D’Andre Swift.
