According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Bears and running back D’Andre swift reached an agreement on a three-year, $33.75 million contract extension that includes $27.5 million guaranteed.

Swift, 27, signed a three-year deal with the Chicago Bears back in March of 2024 after spending one season with the Philadelphia Eagles. He was a second-round pick by the Detroit Lions out Georgia in 2020.
