David Montgomery Doubtful To Play In Week 3

Friday, September 22, 7:19 PM

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery (thigh) didn't practice all week and is listed as doubtful to play in Week 3 on Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons. Montgomery was expected to miss some time all along after getting hurt in the Week 2 overtime loss to the Seattle Seahawks, so fantasy managers should have already moved him to their benches for this week. Consider him highly questionable to play on a short week in Week 4 next Thursday night against the Green Bay Packers on the road. With Montgomery out, Craig Reynolds will serve as the backup to rookie first-rounder Jahmyr Gibbs. Gibbs has underwhelmed in his first two NFL games so far, but he'll have obvious RB1 upside this weekend with Montgomery out of the picture.

Bijan Robinson Struggles In Week 3

Sunday, September 24, 5:54 PM

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson had 33 yards off 10 carries during the loss to Detroit in Week 3. He added four catches for 27 yards. The rookie entered this contest having totaled 29 carries for 180 yards. However, he cooled off significantly in Week 3. Robinson will likely have a few more lackluster outings moving ahead. But he should remain classified as a must-start fantasy option in Week 4 versus Jacksonville in London.
