Detroit Lions RB David Montgomery rushed for 33 yards and one touchdown on nine carries against the Tennessee Titans in Week 8. He also threw a three-yard touchdown pass during the game.
Huddle Up: Montgomery has recorded a rushing touchdown in six of his seven games this season and will continue to share playing time with Jahmyr Gibbs moving forward. He can be at least a flex option in fantasy leagues.

Detroit Lions RB David Montgomery (knee) will practice on Wednesday, Oct. 23, head coach Dan Campbell said.
Huddle Up: Campbell had said earlier in the week that Montgomery is fine after he exited briefly with a knee issue last week. The Lions running back is a high-end RB2 entering Week 8.

Huddle Up: Montgomery missed some time during the game because of an injury but returned to post 70 total yards. He will be involved in the running and passing game next week and can be at least a flex option in fantasy leagues.

Updating a previous report, Detroit Lions RB David Montgomery (knee) returned to the Week 7 game after missing some time because of a knee injury.
Huddle Up: It appears like Montgomery should be fine since he is back in the game, but fantasy players should keep an eye on the situation. He is a weekly starting option in all leagues when healthy.

Detroit Lions RB David Montgomery (knee) suffered a knee injury during the Week 7 game and is considered questionable to return.
Huddle Up: Montgomery was helped off the field, so fantasy players will need to monitor the situation to see how long he will be sidelined. Jahmyr Gibbs likely will receive most of the work while Montgomery is sidelined and is a weekly starting option in all leagues.

Detroit Lions RB David Montgomery rushed 12 times for 80 yards and two touchdowns and had one catch for zero yards in a 47-9 win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 6.

Detroit Lions RB David Montgomery ran 12 times for 40 yards and a touchdown in Week 4 against the Seattle Seahawks, while adding a 40-yard reception on his only target. He and RB Jahmyr Gibbs are the 3rd RB duo in NFL history to post 70-plus scrimmage yards in the first four games of a season, joining Rocky Bleier and Franco Harris of the 1976 Pittsburgh Steelers, and Jim Brown and Bobby Mitchell of the 1958 Cleveland Browns.
Huddle Up: Montgomery and Gibbs have done a good job co-existing, putting up good numbers for fantasy managers despite each other's presence. Fantasy managers will need to go another way in Week 5, as the Lions are on a bye.

Detroit Lions RB David Montgomery rushed 23 times for 105 yards and a touchdown and caught three passes for 17 yards in a 20-13 win over the Arizona Cardinals in Week 3.
Huddle Up: Montgomery has scored in all three games, topping 90 rushing yards twice. There will be games when Jahmyr Gibbs is the more productive back, but the Detroit running game continues to show it can support to fantasy starters.
