Good news on Lions Pro Bowl RB Jahmyr Gibbs. Sources say the hamstring injury he suffered is not considered significant, but the team will be very cautious with rest and rehab to make sure he’s 100% healthy. My understanding is he should be ready for Week 1 vs the Rams.

It looks like the projected Gibbs/Montgomery split is still intact, making them both very fantasy-viable. If Gibbs were to miss anytime, Montgomery should be considered an RB1.

This will be worth monitoring until we find out just how serious this is. Hamstring injuries, of course, can be very tricky. If Gibbs has to miss any time or games to start the season, Montgomery would likely get a bulk of the work with Reynolds next up. The loss of the dynamic Gibbs would certainly change the Lions offensive attack. The rookie Vaki could get to see more time if Gibbs is out for a while.

Lions’ HC Dan Campbell told reporters that rookie RB Jahmyr Gibbs will play vs. the Ravens and added this: “Certainly I think he’s going to need to take the load of (the work)….I’d like to say we’re going to be careful with him, but the reality is we need him.”

Dan Campbell has been pretty straight forward with his coach speak this year, which means we can't leave Gibbs out of lineups this weekend. Craig Reynolds can be considered an RB3 or FLEX play, as he may still garner the David Montgomery goal-line work.

Another hit for the Lions, though nothing has slowed them yet: Sounds like Lions RB David Montgomery will miss some time with the rib injury he suffered yesterday.

X-rays were negative for Montgomery, which was good news, but it still sounds like Monty will miss at least a game. Gibbs was out with a hamstring injury but it sounds like he may be close to returning. If not, Reynolds would be next man up. He carried 10 times but for just 15 yards after taking over for Montgomery. Reynolds did add two catches for 28 yards. The Lions play at the Ravens in Week 7 and then Monday night of Week 8 before a Week 9 bye. There obviously wasn't an exact timeframe given for Montgomery, but it's possible the team's bye week factors in any decisions.

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery (ribs) was ruled out versus the Buccaneers. Montgomery's X-rays were negative, per Fox's Pam Oliver.

Montgomery left owners disappointed after leaving early in Week 6. The Lions were forced to go with Reynolds as the RB1 with Gibbs also out of action. Monty may just be dealing with a pain and comfort issue heading into Week 7 with the injured ribs, so owners will want to monitor his practice status. The Lions are at the Ravens next week in an early Sunday matchup, so we'll have a good idea by then about Montgomery's status. Even after leaving Week 6 with just six carriers, Monty is still averaging over 23 carries per game this season.

Lions ruled out RB Jahmyr Gibbs for Sunday’s game at Tampa, along with DB Brian Branch.

In an impressive Week 5 victory, Montgomery handled business as usual while Reynolds was able to rack up 52 yards and a touchdown on seven carries. Impressive work, but not enough to plug him into a lineup, even though Gibbs will miss Week 6. This is Montgomery's backfield for the foreseeable future, and likely the remainder of the season.

Dan Campbell said Jahmyr Gibbs had "a really good day" of practice Wednesday, got a breather yesterday. Said he can't say with any certainty whether Gibbs will be a go Sunday.

Montgomery is set to be the lead back, which shoots him back into the fringe RB2/3 consideration.

Rookie Jahmyr Gibbs had a fantastic role in his game without Montgomery, handling 18 opportunities for 82 total yards. If Montgomery is a go, he will very likely take back control of the majority of early-down snaps. If he's out, Gibbs is an RB1.
