Seven players poised to bounce back from rough Week 1 (3. Swift: Surely no player from a losing team felt worse on Monday morning that Swift, who dropped what would have been a game-winning touchdown pass in the final seconds of a 27-23 loss to Chicago. The mistake completed the collapse of a 17-point Lions lead and undercut their preseason commitment to embrace "Dagger Time" after struggling to close out wins in 2019. The key for Swift and the team is to not let the Week 1 stumble snowball into something bigger. One of my favorite players from the 2020 NFL Draft, Swift will have a chance to get back on track Sunday in Green Bay. I expect his role in this offense to grow as the season unfolds.): https://www.nfl.com/news/seven-nfl-players-who-will-rebound-from-week-1-stumbles
NFL Week 2 Rookie Preview: Browns' Jordan Elliott looks to cash in on TNF, Jets' Mekhi Becton has his hands full against 49ers' Nick Bosa (DETROIT LIONS @ GREEN BAY PACKERS - The Lions will be looking for contributions up and down their roster from rookies all season. Right guard Jonah Jackson (70 snaps), receiver Quintez Cephus (62 snaps) and D'Andre Swift (34 snaps) all saw considerable playing time. The one everyone wants to see, though, is first-round corner Jeffrey Okudah, who was held out with a hamstring last week. The Lions desperately need him against Davante Adams and company this week, especially now that Desmond Trufant's status is up in the air. On the opposite side of the ball, the man I'm most looking forward to seeing is linebacker Krys Barnes. Truthfully, he wasn't even on my radar as a prospect coming out of UCLA, so I have no college eval to point to. His three stops on only 15 snaps last weekend were pretty dang impressive, though.): https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-week-2-rookie-preview-tnf-browns-bengals-jets-mekhi-becton-49ers-nick-bosa
