Lions RB D'Andre Swift expected to miss "some" time

D'Andre Swift suffered a shoulder sprain during Sunday's game against the Vikings but is not expected to require surgery.

Related Players: Jamaal Williams, Craig Reynolds

Fantasy Impact: 

Considering how the Lions choose to divvy the workload between the backfield (Swift 32 snaps, Williams 35, Reynolds 13), it appears that they were heading into the game with their RB1 on a snap count due to an ankle issue. Instead of simply resting him and allowing Williams more run, they now have an even bigger issue on their hands. With the offensive scheme and an above-average offensive line, Jamaal Williams can instantly be considered a borderline RB1 option in fantasy.

Lions offensive scheme continues to guarantee heavy usage for D'Andre Swift

Though the team seems to be system-agnostic when running their offense, the Lions have been highly gap-heavy this year and have focused on pushing the ball down the field through their running backs. Detroit is second in the league with their 372 yards on the ground and is eleventh in the league with 84 receiving yards to the RB position. D'Andre Swift (RB3) and Jamaal Williams (RB19) have performed as top-20 options at this point in the season.

Fantasy Impact: 

Per the article, the Lions are first in yards per carry (7.15), third in explosive runs (seven), and also second in EPA per rush and rushing DVOA, Football Outsiders’ opponent-adjusted efficiency metric. What's scary for opposing defenses; they've accomplished all of this while dealing with a slew of offensive line injuries. They may just be getting started.

Lions Beat: Team has well-schemed run game

So far this season, on a combined 43 rushing attempts by D’Andre Swift and Jamaal Williams, the Lions have used five separate run concepts at least six or more times each (numbers via Sports Information Solutions).

Fantasy Impact: 

The Lions are averaging 7.2 yards per rush so far this season. The concepts talked about in the story feature the usual diet of zone plays, but also man-blocking components like duo and having different players pull on counter (their most heavily used concept), power and trap plays, the story said. The Lions utilize all those personnel groupings and formations, plus shifts and motions, to get the most advantageous looks possible.

D'Andre Swift practiced on Friday after missing the previous two days' activities with an ankle issue. He is officially listed as questionable per head coach Dan Campbell.

Related Players: Jamaal Williams

Fantasy Impact: 

The Lions came out in Week 1 splitting touches heavily between Swift and Jamaal Williams, with the former leading the latter 18-13. Williams would shoot way, way up the rankings if Swift happened to miss this, or any other, week.
