Lions HC Dan Campbell said David Montgomery (quad) is “in the boat of day-to-day” after leaving Sunday’s Week 2 matchup against the Seahawks.

18 September 2023

Montgomery said after Sunday’s game that his injury would need “a couple weeks” to heal, but it doesn’t sound like Montgomery was hinting at missing Week 3 against the Falcons. We’ll have more clarity on Montgomery’s status when the Lions start practicing later in the week, but Campbell sounded somewhat optimistic about his No. 1 running back. If Montgomery can’t go, Jahmyr Gibbs and Craig Reynolds figure to split the touches, but we’ll see how Montgomery fares throughout the week.
