Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift expressed confidence in head coach Ben Johnson’s offensive system entering the 2026 season. Swift noted that the variety of run concepts, including wide zone, duo, and counter plays, contributes to the effectiveness of the team's rushing attack. He specifically credited the revamped offensive line and the attention to detail in blocking assignments for his enjoyment of the scheme. The veteran back arrives at this season following a 2025 performance where he recorded 1,087 rushing yards and nine touchdowns.
