Miles Montgomery has been placed on IR by the Patriots after receiving significant guaranteed money as an undrafted free agent. Bob Harris notes that Montgomery will not play in the NFL this year unless he reaches an injury settlement. Matt Waldman views the IR placement as a positive sign that the team values their initial investment and wants to keep him, potentially for a number three running back role by his second year.PositiveDepth ChartJul 6, 2026
Miles Montgomery, signed to the most expensive rookie UDFA contract on the Patriots, could wind up as the running back three based on his talent and could surge into competition for that spot.PositiveSleeperMay 18, 2026
UDFA running back signed by Patriots with the most lucrative contract of all their UDFA signings; Bob Harris grades him as a top-five running back pre-draft and highlights him as the best blocker and pass protector in the class. Montgomery chose the Patriots because he liked their coaching philosophy and competitive environment. Beat writers already expect him to be the RB3 over Terrell Jennings, making him one injury away from playing time. Harris recommends him as an end-of-draft option in dynasty leagues, noting the Patriots' reputation for letting players compete.PositiveDepth ChartMay 4, 2026
Elijah Mitchell's release by the Patriots this week opens depth chart opportunity for Miles Montgomery. Mitchell's release suggests either durability concerns or that New England feels confident in their other running back options. Montgomery likely moves from running back six to running back five on the depth chart, gaining more reps and one less body to compete with, though the team could still add another back.PositiveSleeperApr 9, 2026
Brandon Angelo identifies Miles Montgomery of UCF as a potential biggest sleeper of the running back class, ranking him in his third tier (very top of it, close to second tier). At 5'10" 198 lbs, Montgomery excels at pass protection with excellent footwork, punch, and diagnosis of blocks; he processes quickly, reads pre-snap keys effectively, and creates in short yardage with controlled footwork and downhill aggression rather than bouncing plays. Angelo projects Montgomery to reach 5'10" 210 lbs, which should add acceleration and explosion. Angelo emphasizes Montgomery's underrated agility, vision, and ability to dictate contact against larger defenders. Angelo compares him to Kenneth Gainwell as a versatile, decision-making back who may have more juice. Angelo suggests that with modest gains in speed and explosiveness, Montgomery could be the biggest sleeper of the running back class—a late-round or UDFA type who processes the field a tick quicker than defenders.PositiveSleeperMar 19, 2026
Brandon Angelo identifies Miles Montgomery (UCF/Cincinnati) as a completely under-the-radar running back sleeper with a 'puncher's chance' to make his board; Angelo is finalizing his grade and planning to actively target him, indicating conviction in his film study.
