David Montgomery Remains Must-Start Versus Buccaneers

David Montgomery Remains Must-Start Versus Buccaneers

one year ago

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery has rushed 88 times for 371 yards and six touchdowns in just four games. He's averaging 4.2 yards per carry after a big Week 5 performance, and he's been one of the breakout stars of the fantasy football season early on. Montgomery is a true workhorse back in a league where that is becoming rare, so behind an elite offense line, he is a must-start option in all matchups. Jahmyr Gibbs (hamstring) could miss the Week 6 contest against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, meaning Montgomery could see even more touches for a second straight week. Until the 26-year-old ball carrier cools off, start him with confidence.
