Detroit Lions running back Andre Swift is unlikely to play Thursday’s game against the Houston Texans, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Swift would miss his second straight game after suffering a concussion in the week leading up to Sunday’s loss to the Carolina Panthers and escaping that game. He has been listed as questionable to play against the Texans.
The rookie was emerging from his first career start against Washington, when he rushed for 81 yards on 16 carries and caught five passes for 68 yards and a touchdown. Swift has 70 carries for 331 yards and four rushing touchdowns this season with 31 catches for 275 yards and two receiving touchdowns.
With Swift against the Panthers, Adrian Peterson and Kerryon Johnson shared the rushed workload, although they were limited to 35 combined yards on 13 carries.
Information from ESPN’s Michael Rothstein was used in this report.
