A report suggesting the two will split first-team camp reps is being framed as developmental rather than a real threat to Montgomery's role, but at his current price, the ideal outcome is something like a 70-30 workload split in his favor. A more realistic outcome closer to 60-40 would meaningfully cap his weekly ceiling relative to his cost.

A more realistic outcome closer to 60-40 would meaningfully cap his weekly ceiling relative to his cost. The backup struggled mightily as a rookie thrust into a bigger role than expected, finishing near the bottom of the league among high-volume backs in yards per carry, missed tackles forced, and yards after contact per attempt, but he was an excellent, target-earning pass catcher in college and has continued to show that skill.
