David Montgomery News
Saturday, November 14, 8:24 AM
The Houston Texans have ruled out running back David Montgomery (groin) for Sunday's Week 10 game on the road against the Cleveland Browns due to an ongoing groin injury, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Montgomery returned to practice this week and is making progress, but the 29-year-old will end up missing a fourth straight game. His absence will be good news for Woody Marks, who will once again operate as Houston's primary running back this weekend, giving him RB2 upside against the Browns. Montgomery scored two rushing touchdowns in his debut with the Texans in the Week 1 loss to the Buffalo Bills, but outside of that, he has been a disappointment for his fantasy managers in 2026. The former third-round pick by the Chicago Bears in 2019 from Iowa State is averaging a paltry 2.7 yards per carry for 138 rushing yards and two touchdowns in just five games played through nine weeks, and when he returns, he will be a touchdown-dependent RB3/flex while sharing touches with Marks. Monty's next chance to make his return will come in a Week 11 contest against the division-rival Indianapolis Colts on Thursday Night Football. With a quick turnaround next week, consider Montgomery questionable for that contest.

Kaleb Johnson News
Saturday, November 14, 7:02 AM
Green Bay Packers running back Kaleb Johnson is a very appealing waiver wire target with the potential to operate as the team's lead back in Week 10 against the Minnesota Vikings. Johnson finally took on a larger role last week after teammate Josh Jacobs went down with a fractured right ring finger. The former Iowa product ended up rushing for 68 yards and a touchdown against New England, suggesting that he should have priority over MarShawn Lloyd in the pecking order going forward. If that ends up being the case, Johnson should be a high-end RB3 with additional upside, even though he has a tougher matchup against the Minnesota Vikings' stout defense. Managers should always look for high-volume ball carriers in a potent offense, and Johnson has the potential to fit that description if he's able to fend off competition from Lloyd. Johnson currently ranks as the RB33 in RotoBaller's latest Week 10 fantasy rankings, which is enough to earn streaming appeal in 12+ team leagues and even many 10-team formats. There are still plenty of opportunities to add him, too, as Johnson remains available in 82% of leagues right now.
