In Week 1, Detroit Lions rookie running back D’Andre Swift had a chance to win the game but he dropped a sure touchdown pass as the Lions lost to the Chicago Bears.

Fast forward to Week 6 and Swift certainly looks like he belongs in the NFL as he rushed for over 116 yards and a pair of touchdowns in a dominating 34-16 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Swift becomes the first Lions rookie RB to rush for over 100 yards and 2 touchdowns since Barry Sanders did so on Christmas Eve in 1989. He is also the 3rd player in franchise history to produce a game with at least 100 rushing yards and 2 TDs within his first 5 career games.
