The Bears agreed to a deal Monday with running back D’Andre Swift in the opening minutes of free agency and will sign him to a three-year, $24 million contract once the new league year begins Wednesday, a source said. It includes $15.3 million guaranteed.
Swift, 25, made his first Pro bowl last season with 1,049 yards and five touchdowns on 229 carries for the Eagles. He spent his first three seasons with the Lions.
The Bears will add Swift to a backfield that features Khalil Herbert and Roschon Johnson. Herbert is going into the final season of his rookie contract, and Johnson was a fourth-round pick last year.
