LANDOVER, Md. — For most of running back D’Andre Swift’s time with the Bears, he’s been cast as a bad fit.
He was exactly what they needed Monday against the Commanders.
The Bears got big plays from quarterback Caleb Williams and others, but Swift was the difference maker in their 25-24 victory at Northwest Stadium. It was by far the biggest win of the Ben Johnson era, a stunning upset on national television and a step toward moving on from the infamous Fail Mary that derailed the team last season.
