Detroit Lions trade D'Andre Swift to Philadelphia Eagles for two draft picks

The D'Andre Swift era is over with the Detroit Lions after three years.

The Lions traded Swift to the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday for a 2025 fourth-round pick and a swap of seventh-round choices this year, NFL Network reported.

Swift played in 40 games for the Lions over three seasons, running for 18 touchdowns and catching seven scores. He had 99 carries in 14 games last season, but battled injuries most of the year and lost his starting job to Jamaal Williams.

Swift's future in Detroit appeared bleak after the Lions made one the draft's biggest first-round surprises Thursday, selecting Alabama running back Jahmyr Gibbs with the No.
