The Detroit Lions have seen a huge change in their backfield this season.
The Lions have made a concerted effort to get running back Jahmyr Gibbs more work in 2025, which has led to less touches for fellow running back David Montgomery, who would normally split work almost evenly with Gibbs.
Montgomery is having another rough start to a game in the Week 17 contest against the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday.
Here's a closer look at what's going on.
Is David Montgomery playing today?
Yes, Montgomery is active despite being questionable going into the weekend.
Montgomery did not see action on the first drive, as the Lions went with Gibbs instead, which is typical for how Detroit has operated this season.
Montgomery should see the field soon, though.
