Montgomery again edged Jahmyr Gibbs in shaps, this time by a count of 32-22. Rainy, windy conditions in Green Bay favored a ground and pound attack, and Montgomery held up well on 17 attempts.

Gibbs scored the Lions’ only rushing TD on a well-blocked run on 4th down from 15 yards out. Meanwhile, Montgomery handled all five of Detroit’s goal line carries.

Montgomery will remain a strong TD bet for next Sunday’s matchup in Houston. He retains a weekly RB2 outlook.
