        More Work Coming For Roschon Johnson Week 4?

        "Watch for Bears running back Roschon Johnson to possibly get an extended look this week," ESPN's Jeremy Fowler wrote on Wednesday. It doesn't exactly read like a set-in-stone report, but Fowler wouldn't write it without having some sort of intel from the Bears. And it certainly makes sense considering RB D'Andre Swift has been the least effective runner in the NFL through three weeks. He's averaging 1.8 yards per carry and ranks dead last among 50 qualifying RBs in NFL Next Gen Stats' rush yards over expected per attempt. Swift posted season lows last week in snap rate (53%), carry share (46%), and route rate (50%) -- and it sounds like he's set to lose more work. Swift should be on fantasy benches for Week 4. You'd ideally wait to see Johnson's role expand before starting him, but he should be rostered in all fantasy leagues of 12+ teams and even most 10-teamers.
