David Montgomery Week 13 Outlook - Jaguars at Lions

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Dec 1st 2022, 1:05pm EST

Montgomery saw Darrynton Evans cut into his work some last week with ten touches (67 total yards), and 32% of the snaps played, but Montgomery still led the way with 17 touches and 113 total yards. Montgomery is poised for some touchdown regression, with only one score over his last five games despite 14 red zone opportunities. Montgomery rattled off 122 rushing yards in Week 2 against this defense, and he's primed for a repeat performance this week. Montgomery is seventh in missed tackles forced and 14th in PFF's elusive rating. Since Week 7, Green Bay has been 24th in rushing success rate, 30th in rushing yards per game, and 26th in explosive run rate allowed. They have allowed the sixth-most fantasy points per game this season to running backs. Montgomery is a high-end RB2 with RB1 upside.
