From the article

Jahmyr Gibbs has been one of the most dynamic backs in the league since being drafted by the Lions in 2023. Despite sharing a backfield with David Montgomery every year he has been in the league, Gibbs has still averaged the second-most fantasy points per game (19.8 PPG) of any running back over that span, and was the RB2 and RB3 in fantasy points per game in each of the last two seasons. With Montgomery now in Houston, Gibbs is again set to see another heavy workload in 2026 that should be more than enough to position him for an overall RB1 finish.

Gibbs' 19.8 PPG average supports RB1 projection with Montgomery gone.

He was RB2 and RB3 in fantasy points per game in each of the last two seasons. With Montgomery now in Houston, Gibbs is set to see another heavy workload in 2026 that should position him for an overall RB1 finish.
