Swift, who was formerly with the Philadelphia Eagles, made an impression last season by recording a career-high 1,049 running yards, which earned him a well-earned trip to the Pro Bowl.

His usefulness as a multi-dimensional danger on the field is demonstrated by his 39 receptions for 214 yards and a touchdown, demonstrating his ability outside of the running game.

Swift, who spent three seasons with the Detroit Lions, is a valuable addition to the Bears’ squad as he returns to the NFC North.
