Lions expect D'Andre Swift back this week; Nelson, Benson activated off COVID list

Allen Park — After missing four consecutive games with a shoulder injury, there was some thought D'Andre Swift might be done for the year. Instead, Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said he expects the dynamic dual-threat running back to return to action this week against the Seattle Seahawks.

"He's still got room to grow and we're not going to put him out there until he's healthy," Campbell said. "We feel like he's going to be ready to go this week and he's been wanting to go. I think we feel like we're in a place where, let's go and cut him loose and let's let him continue to grow and get better.
