From the article

David Montgomery has been productive every season of his career. He's coming off a career-low in carries (158) last season with the Detroit Lions because of how fantastic Jahmyr Gibbs was. Still, he ran for 716 yards (4.5 yards per carry) and scored eight times. Montgomery will be the go-to running back for the Texans, ahead of second-year player Woody Marks.
