David Montgomery Remains Must-Start Despite Touchdown Dependence

12 months ago

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery has rushed 24 times for 192 yards and two touchdowns since his Week 10 return from a rib injury. Even with rookie Jahmyr Gibbs flashing, the former Chicago Bear has remained a stud fantasy running back. That said, he should continue to be trusted against the Green Bay Packers, who have surrendered the 11th-most fantasy points per game to running backs. Although Montgomery's workload seems to have taken a hit, he still earns goal line carries in one of the best offenses in the NFL and has been an efficient runner. Start him to begin the week on Thanksgiving.
