From the episode

I do not think Pacheco and David Montgomery are nearly the same level player. This is all going towards Jameer Gibbs.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Montgomery's departure clears the path for Gibbs to become Detroit's workhorse back.

Montgomery is no longer the lead back in Detroit; he has departed the team. Analysts explicitly state that Isaiah Pacheco is not at the same level as Montgomery was, and all volume is expected to flow to Jameer Gibbs. Montgomery's absence is the primary driver of Gibbs' elevated projection.
