The Chicago Bears offense has seen its share of playmakers this season, but running back D'Andre Swift has been a key contributor that's led to the unit's success in the first half of the season. Swift has also been a safe bet for an "anytime touchdown," and for good reason.
Through the first nine weeks of the 2026 season, Swift leads the league in rushing touchdowns with 10. He has two games with three rushing touchdowns, first in the season opener against the Carolina Panthers and then against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 8.
However, with the Bears on bye for Week 10, there is a chance for multiple players to catch up to him as four players have nine touchdowns and another three have eight rushing touchdowns.

Perhaps the biggest threat comes from the Buffalo Bills’ dynamic duo, quarterback Josh Allen and running back James Cook. Buffalo is taking on the New York Jets, which they are currently favored to win by two possessions. New York has given up seven rushing touchdowns to backs, although they did not allow Swift to score back when the Jets played the Bears in Week 4. They have also given up two rushing touchdowns to quarterbacks this year.
Another game to keep an eye on will be when the New England Patriots take on the Detroit Lions in Germany. Lions back Jahmyr Gibbs is just one touchdown away from tying Swift. He has three rushing touchdowns against AFC East teams so far this year and has a rushing touchdown in each of the past two games.
Christian McCaffrey also has a chance to pass Swift. He will be playing against the Dallas Cowboys, who have given up nine rushing touchdowns in nine games this season. McCaffrey has also been a magnet for the end zone, scoring at least one rushing touchdown in every game this season since Week 2.
