Patriots RB Ty Montgomery getting first team reps

Aug 16, 2022

One other note: when the Patriots starting offense went into hurry up mode, Ty Montgomery was once again the RB on the field.

Related players: Damien Harris, Rhamondre Stevenson

Fantasy Impact:

Stevenson was also getting time in the "James White role" we reported today, but since then the team seems like it's giving Montgomery his chance to take the role. The tweet said Monty was left open down the right sideline for a big gain and also caught a check down on the drive. Lazar added his versatility to line up at WR is an added bonus. Keep in mind, Montgomery used to play WR before making the switch to RB. He was really last fantasy relevant back in 2016 and 2017 with the Packers but the Patriots seem to be able to revive players and Montgomery is a nature fit for the passing down and hurry-up role.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
