Will David Montgomery play tonight? Lions RB's status for Week 4 explored

David Montgomery got off to a solid start in the 2023 season. The Detroit Lions running back racked up 141 yards and two touchdowns on 37 carries in the opening two games.

Unfortunately, Montgomery suffered a leg thigh bruise injury in Week 2 against the Seattle Seahawks. He was subsequently ruled out for the Week 3 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.

Now, fans are curious to know whether Montgomery will be active to feature against the Green Bay Packers in Week 4 on Thursday, Sept. 28.

Detroit Lions RB David Montgomery

The Detroit Lions listed David Montgomery as questionable for Week 4 against the Green Bay Packers. The running back was a limited participant in practice on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.

As per the latest update he will play against the Packers tonight. On Wednesday, Lions head coach Dan Campbell said he was feeling good about Montgomery returning to action against the Packers on Thursday.

However, Detriot will also be wary of rushing Montgomery back into action before he is 100% as it could aggravate his thigh injury and keep him on the sidelines for a lengthy period. It's likely that Montgomery may see a reduced workload.
