D'Andre Swift came into Week 8 with an injury.
But he was active, and he was good in the first quarter against the Baltimore Ravens.
Swift got off to a quick start for the Chicago Bears with four early carries for 23 yards, along with a 1-yard catch.
And then he disappeared.

Why isn't D'Andre Swift playing?
Swift didn't have a carry after the first quarter until at least midway through the third, with no clear reason.
It may have to do with the injury Swift entered Sunday with.
The Bears could have also just chosen an odd time to let seventh-round rookie Kyle Monangai cook.
That seems less likely than the injury scenario.
Bears RB D'Andre Swift had 4 carries for 23 yards in the first quarter but he hasn't had a handoff since.

The Bears ran 24 plays on their first two drives and picked up 9 first downs. They've run 12 plays in three possessions since, only 1 first down.
Chicago hasn't made any sort of injury announcement, so maybe this is just a coaching decision.
We'll have to wait to hear more about Swift after the game.
