NFL Rumors: D'Andre Swift Suffers Concussion, Week 11 Status in Doubt
The Lions' offense has shown some spark in 2020, largely thanks to rookie running back D'Andre Swift. However, Detroit could be without its offensive engine for a Week 11 matchup with the Panthers.
Swift did not practice on Thursday due to a concussion, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. He is now questionable for Sunday.
The Georgia product has made a major impact for Detroit in recent weeks. Swift has tallied 440 yards in his last five games, scoring four touchdowns. After struggling to find a running game for much of the last decade, the Lions have a likely franchise anchor in Swift. As for Sunday, Matthew Stafford may have to carry the load once again.
