Who Should I Start? Damien Williams or David Montgomery

Friday, November 10, 9:18 AM

Arizona Cardinals running back Damien Williams (foot) has been released by the organization with an injury settlement. This doesn't come as a surprise with James Conner (knee) expected to make his return this week. That means, Williams short lived time with the Cardinals is coming to an end. This season, Williams has totaled 43 yards on 11 carries and was held without a score. It's uncertain if the 31-year-old will get a chance elsewhere, but he's not expected to have fantasy value even he signs with another team.

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery rushed ten times for 33 yards and caught three passes for 14 yards in the 31-23 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. His final stats in the NFC Divisional Round were far from impressive, but he remains a key piece of the team's offense despite the emergence of rookie Jahmyr Gibbs. The 49ers allowed the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game to running backs during the regular season, so Montgomery could be in for another hard-fought day in the NFC Championship Game. That said, he scored 14 touchdowns in the regular season and Wild Card Rounds combined, so he remains a DFS consideration.
