Jahmyr Gibbs, David Montgomery To Form Two-Headed Monster
1 year agoDetroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell envisions a "two-headed monster" at running back this year with rookie first-rounder Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. Detroit had a top-five rushing attack in 2022 with D'Andre Swift and Jamaal Williams, but they've replaced them with Gibbs and Montgomery. Gibbs became the team's highest-drafted RB (No. 12 overall) since Barry Sanders went third overall in 1989. He has impressed the coaching staff in his first training camp because of his dual-threat running style. Montgomery might open the year as the favorite on early downs, but Gibbs is immediately more attractive in fantasy leagues because of his all-around abilities, especially as a pass-catcher.
