David Montgomery

David Montgomery is a touchdown-dependent flex play again this week. Since Week 11, he has averaged 8.1 touches and 48.8 total yards with a 35.3% snap rate. Montgomery has still been effective on a per-carry basis. Among 57 qualifying backs, he ranks 27th in explosive run rate and 11th in yards after contact per attempt. Montgomery will have a tough time with his early down grinding this week. Since Week 10, the Rams have allowed the 12th-fewest rushing yards per game, the fifth-lowest explosive run rate, the tenth-lowest rushing success rate, and the ninth-lowest yards before contact per attempt. Montgomery needs a touchdown to pay off for fantasy this week.
