Fantasy Football
News: 2 days agoCoach DeMeco Ryans said Monday he's hopeful that Montgomery (groin) resumes practicing this week, or next week, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Spin: Montgomery last saw game action in Week 5, but at this stage he appears to be inching closer to a return, with Ryans adding Monday that he's pleased with the veteran back's progress. In Montgomery's absence, Woody Marks has served as the Texans' clear-cut RB1, but once Montgomery is back, Houston's backfield timeshare figures to be restored.
ESPN Fantasy Projection: Montgomery was traded to Houston after spending his first seven NFL seasons with Chicago and Detroit. The veteran back is coming off a down year in 2025, when he posted career lows in touches (182), yardage (908, his first season under 1,000) and fantasy points per game (9.8). Montgomery was still effective as a rusher (4.53 yards per carry, 2.28 yards after contact) but lost work to Jahmyr Gibbs and wasn't involved much as receiver. The latter doesn't figure to change much in Houston, and while Montgomery is a decent bet to pace the team in carries, second-year back Woody Marks figures to sustain a substantial offensive role. Montgomery enters his age-29 season as a touchdown-dependent flex with limited upside.
