Fantasy Impact:

Montgomery carries a questionable tag into Thursday’s Christmas Day contest, but barring any setbacks looks poised to suit up for head coach Dan Campbell. The veteran running back has been difficult for fantasy managers to trust as he has been mitigated to more of a complementary role behind Jahmyr Gibbs in the Detroit backfield, making him a risky lineup option in all formats against the Vikings.
