Detroit Lions RB David Montgomery rushed 15 times for 71 yards and didn't gain a yard on his lone reception in a 44-22 win over the Washington Commanders in Week 10.
Huddle Up: Montgomery split carries evenly with Jahmyr Gibbs, but the latter doubled up Montgomery in rushing yards and scored three total touchdowns. Montgomery remains a valuable part of the Detroit offense, but he is a flex option with occasional RB2 upside.

Detroit Lions RB David Montgomery rushed 11 times for 40 yards and a touchdown and caught two passes for 10 yards in a 27-24 loss to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 9. He also lost a fumble.
Huddle Up: With Jahmyr Gibbs struggling, Montgomery ended up leading Detroit in carries, rushing yards and total yards. He has played second fiddle to Gibbs most of the year, but Montgomery still logs enough touches to be a flex option.

Detroit Lions RB David Montgomery rushed 13 times for 21 yards in Week 7 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, while adding two receptions for 18 yards on three targets.
Huddle Up: Montgomery was having tremendous difficulty, averaging just 1.6 yards per carry, while his backfield partner Jahmyr Gibbs was on fire. Gibbs ran for 136 yards and two touchdowns, while totaling 200+ scrimmage yards. Montgomery will look to rebound in Week 9 after the team's bye. Despite the poor game, he remains a legit low-end RB2 or flex fantasy option even with Gibbs in the mix.

Detroit Lions RB David Montgomery gained 24 yards on four carries and caught two passes for 37 yards in a 30-17 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 6.
Huddle Up: Montgomery finished with his fewest number of carries and touches of the season, but unless more information comes to light, fantasy owners shouldn't overreact. Montgomery has regularly been logging 10-plus touches a game and had a season-high 19 touches just last week.

Detroit Lions RB David Montgomery rushed 18 times for 65 yards and a touchdown, threw a three-yard touchdown pass and caught a six-yard pass in a 37-24 win over the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 5.
Huddle Up: Montgomery's yardage totals have been hit and miss through the first five weeks, but he has five total touchdowns and has logged 12-plus touches four times. Meanwhile, Detroit has scored 34 or more points in four straight games, so it appears that this offense can still support two fantasy starters at the running back spot.
