David Montgomery Listed As Questionable Ahead Of TNF

one year ago

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery (thigh) is listed as questionable ahead of Thursday night's game against the Green Bay Packers. The veteran running back suffered the thigh injury in Week 2 against the Seahawks and ended up sitting out Week 3 with the issue. He got in three limited practices ahead of TNF so he's listed as questionable for the Lions' divisional tilt against the Packers. He's trending in the right direction but fantasy managers won't know for certain if "Monty" is going to suit up on Thursday until the Lions release their final inactive list a few hours before the game starts. It never hurts to have a backup plan in place but Montgomery would slot in as a mid-range RB2 against the Packers on the road if he plays. His potential return would cut into the workload of rookie Jahmyr Gibbs as well, who saw a career-high 17 rushes in Week 3.
