Caleb takes what the defense gives him instead of forcing the shot downfield, or extending the play unnecessarily... As the coverage retreats with them, Swift releases into the open space in front of the linebackers. Caleb comes down to him and delivers the easy completion, giving Swift room to turn upfield and finish with eleven yards and a first down.

Swift converts checkdown into 11-yard first down as Williams avoids hero ball.

Swift was utilized as a checkdown option in the Bears' offense against New England, receiving an 11-yard completion on 3rd and 10 when the Patriots kept defenders over the top with help inside on deeper routes. The source notes that Williams 'takes what the defense gives him instead of forcing the shot downfield' and that Swift 'releases into the open space in front of the linebackers' as the coverage retreats with the deeper routes. Swift finished with eleven yards and a first down, demonstrating the threat of the big play opening up easy completions underneath.
