Never heard of him.
HoustonHawk82 wrote:Swain is another Obomanu. A situational "spell" receiver that is a special teamer that has the ability to show up in formation and not be necessarily feared or paid much attention to until he gets the first and trots back off the field. He's not a guy the defense will prepare for as there will purposely be no real amount of tape on him.

You should consider apologizing to Obomanu.
"Obomanu has 87 career catches for 1,209 yards and seven TDs, all with Seattle, which drafted him in Round Seven in 2006."
Swain has 8 catches for 87 yards in his NFL career (2008). He's a ST player at best, camp fodder at worst.

The game is midway through the fourth quarter, and we are having a tough time getting guys open against a secondary that is well-prepared. Marshawn is averaging 1.8 per carry against a front seven who are playing inspired ball. On a 2nd and 8, at our own 36, in trots Swain who lines up on the far left in a 4-wide formation. Pic play with Rice sheds Swain's coverage as the safety and the DB play Rice. The rush doesnt allow Russ position to throw the out so Swain turns it upfield and runs under a toss from Russ at the 50 and gets run out of bounds for a 28-yard gain. First down in enemy territory as Swain stealthfully trots back to the sidelines while the D says "who the hell was that?"
