Week 17 Overview

Even with Jahmyr Gibbs’ workload rebounding last week and neither guy finding much rushing success vs. Green Bay, Montgomery still drew 19 touches – including a season-high 5 catches. He and Gibbs should both be busy against a Buffalo D that has shown more vulnerability vs. the run than the pass (at least against teams other than the Rams). The Bills rank just 26th in yards allowed per carry.

David Montgomery Targeting Divisional Round Return

David Montgomery Targeting Divisional Round Return

Lions RB David Montgomery is targeting the Divisional Round for his return from an MCL injury, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Detroit will get the NFC's No. 1 seed and a first-round bye if they win out, so Montgomery might end up not missing any playoff games. Although risky, he could be a good pick in playoff fantasy football contests.

Lions RB David Montgomery (knee) is hoping to return at some point during the postseason, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. After getting multiple opinions on his injured MCL, Montgomery has opted for rest and rehab instead of surgery. He can still be dropped from all redraft rosters but is back in play at least as a flier in playoff fantasy contests. We'll keep you updated on his progress and a potential return target.

Lions HC Dan Campbell said Monday that RB David Montgomery needs season-ending surgery on the MCL he injured in the Week 15 loss to the Bills. It's a massive blow to a Detroit offense that's fueled by its running game. But Montgomery's absence figures to turn RB Jahmyr Gibbs into a league-winner. In three games without Montgomery last year, Gibbs averaged 18.0 carries, 5.7 targets, and 132 total yards per game.

Lions RB David Montgomery injured his right MCL in Sunday's loss to the Bills and will be out indefinitely. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that it's a tear and that Montgomery might be out through the playoffs. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports it as a sprain but adds that Montgomery will have further testing. Whatever the specific diagnosis and return timeline, it seems a pretty safe bet that Montgomery will miss the rest of the regular season.
