D'Andre Swift vs Justice Hill: Who Should You Start?
The numbers tell a clear story here. D'Andre Swift put up 13.2 fantasy points per game for the Chicago Bears in 2025, while Justice Hill managed 5.5 across 10 games with the Baltimore Ravens. A 7.7-point weekly edge is substantial at the running back position.
A 7.7-PPG gap gives D'Andre Swift the edge on paper, but paper does not account for Thursday night matchups, weather games, or a star defender returning from injury. The real question is not who was better in 2025, but who is the better start this specific week.
Both profile as early-down workhorses. D'Andre Swift ran for 1087 yards and 9 touchdowns; Justice Hill posted 93 and 2. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.
Bye weeks matter for roster construction: D'Andre Swift sits Week 7 while Justice Hill is off Week 14. If you are deciding between the two as a season-long roster hold, the staggered byes actually work in your favor.
