Who Should I Start? David Montgomery or Daniel Jones

Friday, December 5, 1:54 AM

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery had six carries for 60 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown during Thursday's Week 14 win over the Dallas Cowboys. He also converted his lone target into a 13-yard reception. The highlight of Montgomery's outing was a 35-yard rushing touchdown that extended Detroit's lead to multiple possessions in the second quarter. Although Jahmyr Gibbs, who had 120 scrimmage yards and three touchdowns on Thursday, remains the primary running back in the Lions' offense, Montgomery has been able to maintain a fantasy-relevant role of his own. He has double-digit fantasy points (PPR) in four of his last six games, as well as a touchdown in three of those six. The veteran should continue to be viewed as a high-end RB3/flex heading into Week 15 against the Los Angeles Rams, who have allowed the third-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs in 2025.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones (fibula) was listed as a full participant in Wednesday's practice session, according to the team's official website. Jones' full participation on Wednesday is an estimation, as the Colts conducted a walk-through. It was reported last week that the 28-year-old signal-caller is playing through a fractured fibula, and his production has cooled off a bit in recent weeks after an excellent start to the season. Jones has completed 67.9% of his passes for 3,041 yards with 19 touchdowns and seven interceptions while adding 44 carries for 160 yards and five rushing touchdowns in 12 starts this season. The veteran quarterback will continue playing through the injury and will look to return to his early-season form for a big divisional game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 14.
