David Montgomery Handles 21 Touches, Scores Touchdown In Win

one year ago

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery rushed 21 times for 74 yards (3.5 YPC) and scored a rushing touchdown in the 21-20 win over the Kansas City Chiefs. The 26-year-old handled 12 more touches than rookie running back Jahmyr Gibbs and played 78% of the offensive snaps. Until proven otherwise, Montgomery looks like the primary back in Detroit and is set up for another favorable matchup against Seattle next week. He didn't draw a single target in Week 1, though, so his fantasy production could be touchdown-dependent.
