David Montgomery heads to locker room with Week 12 shoulder injury
Lions running back David Montgomery is sidelined with a shoulder injury.
The Detroit Lions are beating the Indianapolis Colts with relative ease in Week 12, but they are facing an injury concern. Running back David Montgomery was spotted walking to the locker room late in the third quarter. The team subsequently announced he is questionable to return with a shoulder injury.
Montgomery left the game with 37 rushing yards and a touchdown on eight carries. He also had three receptions for 36 yards. Jahmyr Gibbs is the team’s starter even when Montgomery is healthy, although it’s sort of a thunder and lightning backfield partnership. Gibbs has 13 carries for 55 yards and two touchdowns to go along with two receptions for 12 yards.
More to come.
