David Montgomery's three touchdowns on Sunday were pretty encouraging. He only averaged 3.0 yards per carry on 20 totes and added 19 yards on three catches, but Montgomery scored rushing TDs from the goal line and the 18-yard line, and a receiving TD from the seven-yard line as well.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Montgomery's 3 TDs on 20 carries signals red-zone volume despite modest efficiency.

Montgomery scored three touchdowns on Sunday against the Bills despite averaging just 3.0 yards per carry on 20 carries and adding 19 yards on three catches; he scored rushing TDs from the goal line and 18-yard line, and a receiving TD from the seven-yard line, suggesting Houston is positioning him frequently in the red zone; if the Texans continue to feed him 20+ opportunities per game, Montgomery doesn't need high efficiency to be effective for fantasy and should produce RB1-level outings, with the Bengals matchup next week expected to yield another strong performance.
