David Montgomery News

David Montgomery Is a Low-End RB2 vs. Dallas

Saturday, October 3, 5:29 AM

Houston Texans running back David Montgomery started his season with a massive three-touchdown performance against the Bills, but he has struggled in his last two games and could be on the verge of losing some work. The veteran had just six carries for 10 rushing yards against the Bengals in Week 2 and 11 carries for 33 yards against the Colts in Week 3. He wasn't able to get back to the end zone in either game, although he did have multiple catches in each contest as well. Montgomery could be losing work to Woody Marks this week, according to reports from ESPN's Dan Graziano. The veteran still has touchdown-dependent potential, though, and he's in a favorable matchup against the Cowboys, who have allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to RBs this season. Overall, Montgomery lines up as a low-end, high-risk RB2 this week in standard-sized leagues. He's the No. 20 RB in RotoBaller's Week 4 rankings, so he can be started with caution if you don't have better options.

Tyson Bagent News

Tyson Bagent to Start Against Jets

Saturday, October 3, 9:26 AM

Chicago Bears quarterback Tyson Bagent will start Sunday against the New York Jets with Caleb Williams (hamstring) sidelined for a second straight game. Ben Devine reported the decision Saturday, ending a week in which head coach Ben Johnson had declined to name Bagent or Case Keenum as the starter. Bagent took most of the first-team reps during the week after clearing concussion protocol ahead of Monday night's win over Philadelphia. He last saw game action in Week 2, completing five of nine passes for 54 yards after Williams went down before suffering a concussion himself. Keenum played well in his place against the Eagles, but Chicago is going back to Bagent for Week 4. RotoBaller's updated Saturday rankings have him at QB25, which keeps him primarily in the Superflex and two-quarterback conversation.
