D'Andre Swift had more rushing yards than all but two players in the NFL last week, but the Detroit Lions still think Swift has more to offer on offense.
"He certainly had a hot start for us we’d like to continue to build on," Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson said Thursday. "We have a vision for how we want to use him. We might not want to share that publicly right now, but no, he’s certainly a big part of our offense."
Johnson acknowledged Swift can be "maybe a little bit more versatile than what we saw" in last week's 38-35 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
