Bears Have Their RB1 On The ROSTER — It’s De’Andre Swift
About this episode
In this episode of The Chicago Bears Podcast, Pat The Designer and Jason McKie—brought to you by The Advantage Dealer Group and The Hard Rock Casino Northern Indiana—dive into the state of the Bears' running back unit and whether it's time to add depth before the 2025 season kicks off.
00:00 – Travis Etienne Isn't the Answer:
Despite his past production, Etienne struggled in 2024 and isn't the solution the Bears need. Plus, Jacksonville likely wouldn’t part with him easily
00:08 – De'Andre Swift as Bears RB1:
Swift earned a three-year, $24 million deal and brings versatility—effective as both a runner and receiver. He has the talent to lead Chicago’s backfield
00:20 – Bengals’ Negotiation Tactics:
Cincinnati's ongoing contract issues with Trey Hendrickson and Shemar Stewart continue to make headlines. McKie explains how this public bargaining approach impacts the team's reputation across the league
00:28 – Rookie RB Money Moves:
Second-round rookie contracts are under fire. Burden and other mid-round picks are fighting for fully guaranteed deals. How are players managing these high-stake negotiations?
00:36 – Dawgs of the Week:
