Lions RB D'Andre Swift (illness) missed practice Thursday after taking limited reps Wednesday. Swift has made it through the league's concussion protocol but Adrian Peterson said that the rookie hasn't been himself since the concussion. We should know more on Friday, but for now we've removed Swift from the rankings. If he does play, he will be ranked somewhere in the 10-20 range.

Kerryon Johnson to split carries with Adrian Peterson

Lions RB Adrian Peterson will get the start Sunday against the Panthers, but Kerryon Johnson is going to split carries.

Fantasy Impact:

The Lions, of course, do not have D’Andre Swift due to injury, so AP is back in the lead, but the Lions won’t give up just yet on Johnson. If there’s a week for these backs to shine, it’s this week against a porous run defense of the Panthers. Peterson looks like a solid RB2 this week and Johnson could be considered in your flex spot.

Lions RB D'Andre Swift (concussion, out) missed practice again Friday and is out for Week 11. With Swift out, the Lions likely lean on Adrian Peterson as a runner and Kerryon Johnson as a change-of-pace back. Peterson has out-carried Johnson 97-to-30 this year, but only holds an 11-to-8 advantage in receptions, so Johnson should be involved as a pass-catcher.

Lions RB D'Andre Swift will not play Week 11 because of a concussion, according to Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press.

Related Players: Adrian Peterson, Kerryon Johnson

Fantasy Impact:

Swift was an RB2 using 4for4's rankings, but now he is out. It would have been nice to see Swift carve up a soft Panthers run defense. Fire up Adrian Peterson?
