Summary

David Montgomery took a step back in 2021 off the heels of his career-year-to-date 2020 campaign of more than 1,500 total yards. Montgomery has a two-way skillset with prototypical size and 96 receptions over the past two seasons, despite missing four games over the span. Even after returning from injury midseason and Khalil Herbert filling in admirably as the starter, Montgomery's workload did not see a downturn. Montgomery is one of the more underrated starting running backs in the NFL considering his control of the starting role, and upside for double-digit touchdowns and 50 or more receptions.
