Leads team in carries
Montgomery rushed 13 times for 64 yards while catching one of three targets for an additional 10 yards in the Bears' 27-23 victory over Detroit.
Analysis: After missing practice time over the last few weeks with a groin injury, Montgomery handled his typical role as the early-down runner, and he regularly posted positive yardage on his attempts against a Lions' defensive line that failed to get consistent penetration into the backfield. With the Bears trailing by over two touchdowns in the third quarter, however, Montgomery saw very few rushing attempts down the stretch because the team had to employ a pass-heavy attack. With very little…read more

Ready to go for Week 1
Montgomery (groin) is active for Sunday's game in Detroit.
Analysis: Montgomery looked in serious jeopardy of missing the season opener after straining his groin in an Aug. 26 workout, but the running back was able to clear up most of the concern about his availability by logging full practices Thursday and Friday. The second-year back still carried a questionable tag into the weekend, but now that he's been formally cleared, Montgomery is expected to handle a full workload Sunday. No. 2 back Tarik Cohen will also have a role in the Bears' game plan, with most…read more

Expected to suit up for opener
Montgomery (groin) is expected to be active and receive a full workload in Sunday's season opener against the Lions, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports.
Analysis: This anticipated outcome was foreshadowed by Montgomery's full participation in practice Friday. It's still worth confirming the running back's availability for Sunday's 1:00 ET kickoff, but in the absence of any setbacks, Montgomery is line to head the Bears' Week 1 backfield, with Tarik Cohen and Ryan Nall in reserve.

Expected to play
Montgomery (groin) was a full practice participant Friday but is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Detroit.
Analysis: Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune notes that Montgomery likely would be listed as 'probable' if the NFL still used that designation. Montgomery closed out the week with back-to-back full practices after Wednesday's limited session, putting him on track for the starting role Sunday in Detroit. However, it's probably best to check back in once inactive lists come out Sunday morning, as it wasn't too long ago that Montgomery's Week 1 status was a major source of concern. The Bears' roster…read more

Full participant Thursday
Montgomery (groin) practiced fully Thursday, Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Analysis: Montgomery kicked off Week 1 prep with a limited session, the result of a groin strain suffered Aug. 26. He touched on the limitations Thursday, telling Stacey Dales of NFL Network that he "didn't do much in practice yesterday. Wanna be safe." By getting in a full session, Montgomery is ready to lead the Bears backfield Sunday at Detroit, at least on early downs.

Gets 'limited' tag Wednesday
Montgomery (groin) was listed as a limited participant at Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Montgomery picked up a groin strain during an Aug. 26 practice, when he slipped on the field while taking a handoff from Mitchell Trubisky. His initial recovery timeline was 2-to-4 weeks, which conveniently coincided with the Bears' opener Sept. 13. While coach Matt Nagy told Jeff Dickerson of ESPN.com before Wednesday's session that Montgomery was "gonna have a hell of a stretch practice," the running back proceeded to add individual drills to the mix and received a "limited" tag on the injury…read more

Getting in work Wednesday
Montgomery (groin) took part in stretching and individual drills at Wednesday's practice, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Analysis: Montgomery is two weeks removed from the groin strain that was expected to require 2-to-4 weeks of recovery time. Considering what he was able to do Wednesday, he seems poised to receive a "limited" tag on the Bears' first Week 1 injury report, which will be revealed in the near future. If he's unable to make it all the way back for Sunday's game at Detroit, though, Montgomery will yield the backfield to some combination of pass-catching back Tarik Cohen, Ryan Nall and undrafted rookie Artavis…read more

Out for 2-to-4 weeks
Montgomery (groin) is expected to be out for 2-to-4 weeks, giving him a shot to be ready for Chicago's season opener against Detroit, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: With the opener two an a half weeks away, this timeline suggests Montgomery is more likely to miss the game than suit up. He suffered a groin strain Wednesday, slipping on the practice field while taking a hand-off from Mitchell Trubisky. Initial reports stirred up fear of a knee ligament injury, but it turned out to be something much less serious, albeit still a threat to Montgomery's Week 1 availability. The Bears don't have much depth in their backfield, with passing-down specialist Tarik…read more

Suffers groin strain
Head coach Matt Nagy said that Montgomery, who suffered a groin strain Wednesday, will undergoing further testing as the Bears look to determine the severity of the injury, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Reports earlier in the day suggested that Montgomery was carted off the practice field with the injury, but Adam Jahns of The Athletic later provided more specificity on the matter, relaying that the running back "left the practice field under his own power, was evaluated and was then carted to Halas Hall." In any case, Montgomery's health remains a situation to monitor, even though his injury situation appears less serious than initially feared.

Initial diagnosis promising
Initial tests suggest Montgomery suffered a groin strain during Wednesday's practice, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Montgomery went to the ground without contact and was then carted off the field, leading to immediate speculation regarding the possibility of a major knee injury. Fortunately, the second wave of reports is far more promising than the first, with Adam Schefter of ESPN also suggesting Montgomery avoided a knee injury, and adding that the Bears are optimistic as they await results from more tests. Montgomery seems to have escaped the worst-case scenario of a torn knee ligament, but that doesn't…read more

Possible serious injury
Montgomery left Wednesday's practice early with "what looked like a significant (leg) injury," Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Analysis: Per Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune, Montgomery was carted off the field following a non-contact injury. The Bears will presumably send Montgomery in for further testing, after which a clearer diagnosis of his injury along with a potential timeline for his recovery will become available. Tarik Cohen should be in store for more reps with the first-team offense in the short term, but the Bears would more than likely add a veteran running back to the roster if Montgomery is forced to miss time.

Leaner and faster
Montgomery shed six pounds in the offseason and looks noticeably quicker on the practice field, Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Analysis: Although Montgomery ran for just 3.7 yards per carry as a rookie, the offensive line frequently failed to open holes for him, and he often ran on obvious running downs against stacked boxes. Unless a line that wasn't addressed in the offseason takes a big step forward, it'll be difficult for Montgomery to show massive improvement. However, he's the unquestioned leader for early-down work, and his expected volume indicates he offers a stable floor for a player being drafted outside the top-24…read more

High hopes for Year 2
Montgomery anticipates taking a big step forward this season, Colleen Kane of The Chicago Tribune reports.
Analysis: Montgomery believes improved knowledge of Matt Nagy's playbook will help him perform better, and running backs coach Charles London says the second-year pro can make more of an impact in the passing game. It's basically the same stuff we hear with every young running back, but there is reason to think Montgomery will best last year's ugly mark of 3.7 YPC if the Chicago offense as a whole isn't so brutal. On the other hand, Tarik Cohen remains locked in for a significant pass-catching role out…read more

Eclipses 100 yards
Montgomery rushed 23 times for 113 yards and a touchdown in the Bears' 21-19 win over the Vikings in Week 17, and he finished the season with 889 rushing yards, 185 receiving yards and six touchdowns .
Analysis: Despite seeing over 250 touches in his rookie season, Montgomery struggled due to poor offensive line blocking and inconsistent usage that rarely allowed him to get into a rhythm. He typically showed excellent elusiveness, but he was usually met by multiple defenders after evading an initial tackler. He'll be entering the second year of his rookie deal in 2020, and he should be considered a top-24 running back in fantasy drafts; however, if Chicago improves its blocking and playcalling, he'll…read more

Receives 14 touches
Montgomery rushed 13 times for 57 yards and caught one pass for two yards in the Bears' 26-3 loss to the Chiefs on Sunday.
Analysis: Aside from one drive in the third quarter when Montgomery had three productive runs, he was a non-factor in a game in which the Bears were unable to compete. After having posted at least 49 combined yards in each of his last four games, he'll be a volume-based option at running back in Week 17 against the Vikings.

Unproductive on 15 touches
Montgomery rushed 14 times for 39 yards and caught one pass for 10 yards in the Bears' 21-13 loss to the Packers on Sunday.
Analysis: Despite facing a Green Bay defense that struggled most of the year to stop the run, Montgomery was unable to break a run of longer than eight yards, and once the Bears fell behind by double digits early in the third quarter, he lost significant playing time to Tarik Cohen. After touching the ball at least 15 times in each of his last eight games while posting inconsistent production, he'll be a volume-based fantasy option in Week 16 at home against the Chiefs.

Plays workhorse role in win
Montgomery rushed 20 times for 86 yards and failed to secure his only target in the Bears' 31-24 win over the Cowboys on Thursday. He also lost a fumble.
Analysis: Montgomery hit the 20-carry mark for only the third time this season, as he was leaned on more than usual in the latter stages of the fourth quarter with the Bears trying to ice the game. The rookie has been productive over his last pair of contests after a pair of lackluster outings in Weeks 11 and 12, as he's garnered 161 rushing yards on 36 carries against the Lions and Cowboys. He'll look to play a significant role again in a Week 15 divisional battle versus the Packers a week from Sunday.

Compiles 87 total yards, TD in win
Montgomery rushed 16 times for 75 yards and secured both of his targets for 12 yards and a touchdown in the Bears' 24-20 win over the Lions on Thursday.
Analysis: Montgomery turned in a workman-like effort on the ground, with his long run of the day going for a modest 14 yards. He also delivered through the air when it mattered most, notching what would turn out to be a game-winning three-yard touchdown reception with 2:17 remaining. Montgomery's rushing yardage tally served as his second highest of the season, and he'll look to build on those numbers versus the Cowboys in a Week 14 Thursday night home matchup.

Disappointing performance
Montgomery rushed 13 times for 22 yards and caught two passes for nine yards in the Bears' 19-14 victory over the Giants on Sunday.
Analysis: Even though he appeared fully recovered from the ankle injury that limited him last week, he continued to split work fairly equally with Tarik Cohen, and aside from a 13-yard run, Montgomery was unable to generate much yardage after contact. Despite his poor performance, this was the first time in five games that he failed to post at least 50 yards from scrimmage, and he should be considered a low-end starting option for fantasy managers.

Does little with 15 touches
Montgomery (ankle) carried the ball 14 times for 31 yards and caught one pass (three targets) for 19 yards in Sunday's 17-7 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: Montgomery was a game-time decision after rolling his ankle at practice earlier this week, but he was able to suit up and lead the team in carries. Unfortunately for his fantasy owners, the rookie was unable to do much against the Rams' stout interior defensive line, and he may have also been feeling the affects of the balky ankle. Despite the dud, Montgomery has been averaging 18 carries over his last four contests, and he will have a chance to feast against the Giants -- which allow 122.7…read more

Available Week 11
Montgomery (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Rams at L.A., Jason Lieser of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
Analysis: Montgomery rolled his ankle at Wednesday's practice, inducing the Bears to hold him out Thursday before he returned Friday as a limited participant. Considered a game-time decision by coach Matt Nagy, Montgomery must have appeased the team's medical and training staffs enough to get the all-clear. It's unclear if Montgomery will handle his typical workload, but Tarik Cohen and Ryan Nall are on hand in the event he cannot.

Headed for game-time call
Montgomery (ankle) will be a game-time decision Sunday night against the Rams, Nathan Smith of the Bears' official site reports. "It was good to get him back out there and just kind of see where he's at," coach Matt Nagy said after Friday's practice. "He's gonna end up being a game-time decision for us."
Analysis: Montgomery was held out of Thursday's practice after he injured his ankle Wednesday. The return to a limited session Friday sets him up as truly questionable, with Tarik Cohen and Ryan Nall the alternate options in Chicago's backfield. An 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff creates issues for fantasy managers, and there's no assurance of a full workload even if Montgomery ends up playing. It's a brutal matchup in any case, with the Rams limiting backs to 3.6 yards per carry (fourth-best) and allowing the…read more

Deemed questionable for SNF
Montgomery (ankle) returned to practice Friday as a limited participant and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, Rich Campbell of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Analysis: This has all the makings of a frustrating situation for fantasy managers, with Montgomery appearing truly questionable for a game that kicks off at 8:20 p.m. ET. He was listed as a limited participant Wednesday when he initially hurt his ankle during practice, before downgrading to no activity Thursday. The return to a limited session Friday suggests he has a real chance to play, with Tarik Cohen and Ryan Nall on hand in the event of an absence.

Montgomery (ankle) didn't practice Thursday.
Analysis: Montgomery made a surprise appearance on the Bears' first Week 11 injury report as a limited participant. The reason become clear Thursday, when coach Matt Nagy relayed Montgomery "lightly" rolled his ankle at Wednesday's session, per Rich Campbell of the Chicago Tribune. As a result, Montgomery's lack of reps Thursday is concerning, giving him just one more chance to get in some work before the weekend.

Week 11 status in question
Coach Matt Nagy said that Montgomery "lightly" rolled an ankle during Wednesday's practice, leaving the running back's availability uncertain for this weekend's game against the Rams, Rich Campbell of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Analysis: Nagy's comments provide an explanation for why Montgomery was surprisingly listed as a limited participant Wednesday in the Bears' first practice of the week. It's uncertain whether the rookie will be able to resume practicing Thursday and/or Friday, but his ability to bounce back from the ankle sprain over the next couple of days will likely have significant sway on his status for the weekend. If Montgomery -- who has played at least 60 percent of the offensive snaps in each of the last three…read more

Limited by ankle issue
Montgomery was limited at Wednesday's practice due to an ankle injury.
Analysis: Since seeing a season-low four touches Week 7 against the Saints, Montgomery has bounced back over the last three games, racking up 65 touches for 283 yards and three touchdowns. With the lead role locked down ahead of change-of-pace back Tarik Cohen, Montgomery has become the most consistent option in the Bears offense, but the aforementioned health concern could throw a wrench into that development.

Disappointing afternoon
Montgomery carried 17 times for 60 yards in the Bears' 20-13 win over the Lions on Sunday.
Analysis: Despite what appeared to be a cupcake matchup, Montgomery was never given a chance to get into a groove. Even when the Bears got the ball deep in enemy territory, it was Tarik Cohen who was given the red-zone screen pass for a touchdown. When Chicago established a commanding lead late in the third quarter, it was disappointing that Montgomery wasn't given the consistent carries that could've propelled him to a much bigger performance.

Finds end zone twice
Montgomery rushed 14 times for 40 yards and two touchdowns and caught three passes for 36 yards in Chicago's 22-14 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.
Analysis: Montgomery had just a single yard at the half, but once the Bears were trailing by double digits, the offense started to move the ball better, and he was able to punch in two of his three goal-line carries in to help get Chicago back into the game. He was mostly shut down on the majority of his touches, but a 17-yard run and a 30-yard reception accounted for almost half of his scrimmage yards. For the first time this season, he's put together back-to-back useful fantasy performances, and his…read more
