D'Andre Swift is in his seventh NFL season, but he has already achieved a personal milestone. In the Chicago Bears' 34-17 victory over the Seattle Seahawks on Monday Night Football, Swift rushed 27 times for 69 yards, but his impact was felt most near the goal line, where he scored all three of his touchdowns from within five yards.
With those three rushing scores, Swift not only took a one-touchdown lead over Josh Allen for the NFL lead with 10, but also established a new career high—with nine games still remaining on the schedule. Quarterback Caleb Williams contributed a clean 247-yard, one-touchdown performance to help Chicago improve to 6-2 and cut their deficit to the Minnesota Vikings in the NFC North in half.
Swift now has two games this season with three rushing touchdowns, making him one of 19 active NFL players who have recorded a rushing-TD hat trick. That fact sets the stage for a quiz: can you name every active NFL player who has rushed for at least three scores in a single contest?
Key Analysis
Swift's achievement is notable not only for the career-high mark but also for the timing—he reached 10 rushing touchdowns in just eight games, putting him on pace to shatter his previous best. The Bears' offense, led by Williams, has found a reliable red-zone threat in Swift, whose ability to find the end zone from close range has been a key factor in Chicago's 6-2 start. As the season progresses, Swift's name will be one to watch among the league's top rushers.
