Wow!
Maybe him and Penny can combine to play a full season?

wonder if he was HS teammates with zacchaeus.
Howie going all in again even after the exodus. If Steen can play they've got every hole covered.

"Really, I feel like it's just a mentality. How I run," Swift told ESPN. "God blessed me [with] a lot of ability and talent, first and foremost, but just being able to work at them type of things with knowing [defensive backs] like to go low. So, I'm gonna deliver the blow. That's my mentality every time I touch the ball."
That physical nature. That short-area quickness. That explosiveness. That's all a product, Swift says, of being from Philadelphia.
"That's where I get my mentality from. That's why I play the way that I play," the Lions' second-year pro said. "It's why I carry myself the way that I do. Philly has shaped me into this man that I am today and this football player that I'm becoming."
Swift is younger than Luke Schoonmaker the tight end Dallas took in round 2

Maybe we get five games a piece from Penny, Swift, Gainwell as lead back, then we ride Scott for the Giants.
2023 combined salaries Swift/Penny/Gainwell/Scott/Sermon $6.9 million
2023 salary Mile Sanders $6.35 million
Jesus Christ! Howie F'ing Roseman.
There's no way Sermon makes the team, so you can lower that figure by eighty dollars.

0 as in the number of carries he'll probably have.
Thought I'd hate it - don't
The numeral 0 does look cool!
The thing that gets me is that the Eagles were the team to ask for the '0' rule change, and that was months before they had Swift. So did someone else want the 0 and Swift stole it? Or is Howie 8 chess moves ahead?
Prob Howie being ahead.
Maybe it was someone who left who was pushing for it? I could see CJGJ being a 0 guy.

Well, his problem with the Eagles was not enough 0s.
*dice clay shrug*
Ooooh
