In 2024, D’Andre Swift signed a three-year deal with the Chicago Bears. The NFC North franchise was impressed with how he played with the Philadelphia Eagles and decided to make him their new running back.
What is D’Andre Swift’s Salary?
Swift signed a three-year, $24 million contract with the Bears. In 2025, he will earn a base salary of $7,390,000 and a workout bonus of $100,000, while carrying a cap hit of $9,333,333 and a dead cap value of $10,156,667.
Swift will be a free agent after the 2026 NFL season, but fans in Chicago will believe that he has performed up to the value of his contract so far.

Swift currently leads the Bears in rushing, but rookie Kyle Monangai has turned heads as well. His rapid emergence should keep the veteran sharp, because Monangai has the talent to take over as Chicago’s RB1 if the opportunity arises.
With Swift entering the final year of his contract in 2026, the Bears would welcome a major leap from the rookie sooner rather than later. It will be interesting to see how the backfield dynamic evolves in Chicago.
