The Lions running back has been dealing with a groin issue almost all of the preseason. Now comes concern from his head coach Dan Campbell whether he can be ready for Week one. The key here is even if he is able to practice, can he get into game/football shape to be effective? This type of groin injury is particularly difficult for a running back with Swift’s style to overcome. At this point, a best case scenario is ramping up his workload as the season starts, but indeed he may miss some time at the start of the year, leaving snaps to former Green Bay Packer Jamaal Williams.
