Impact The Lions had an odd game script to work with, as they were handed several short fields by their defense and special teams. Volume was limited across the board, and Montgomery turned in a muted stat line as a result. Still, he found the end zone twice, first with a typical seven-yard run. He then added a three-yard pass to Sam LaPorta on a trick play just before halftime. Montgomery has at least one touchdown in six of seven games this season, and his role is extremely valuable in the explosive Detroit offense.

THE DAILY DRIVE: Lions' Dan Campbell: RB David Montgomery 'good' after picking up bruise near knee Will Detroit Lions be deterred by failed fake punt vs Vikings? Not on Dan Campbell's watch

OCTOBER 22 • DETROITLIONS.COM

Knee not a long-term concern Speaking with the media Monday, coach Dan Campbell said there's no long-term concern about the knee injury David Montgomery suffered in Sunday's win over the Vikings, Justin Rogers...

Impact Campbell said Montgomery took a knee to the back of his knee and suffered a "bad bruise," per Rogers. Montgomery was briefly forced to leave the win over Minnesota, but he was able to return to the game after being checked by the medical staff. Montgomery rushed a season-low nine times for 61 yards and added 3-39-0 on four targets in the pass game. It was his first game without a touchdown this season. Jahmyr Gibbs was able to pick up more of the slack with Montgomery hobbled, finishing with 160 total yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns on 19 touches. Montgomery sounds like he should be fine for next Sunday's game against the Titans, but he could have his practice reps dialed back this week.

Impact Montgomery missed time in the first half with a knee injury, and although he was able to return, he was significantly outpaced by backfield mate Jahmyr Gibbs (160 total yards, two rushing TDs). Montgomery then nearly cost the Lions the game with his rare fourth-quarter fumble, which the Vikings' Ivan Pace was able to scoop up and return 36 yards for a touchdown. Montgomery's rush attempts and rushing yards were both season lows, and he also failed to score for the first time this season, but he'll have a chance at getting back on track with a full workload in a Week 8 home matchup against the Titans.
