Ty Montgomery Fantasy

New England Patriots running back Ty Montgomery (shoulder) will miss the rest of the year after undergoing shoulder surgery. The veteran running hasn't played since Week 1 because of injuries. He had only five touches for 13 scrimmage yards and a receiving touchdown in the Week 1 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. The news isn't heartbreaking for fantasy players, as the veteran running back had no value in redraft leagues. Even in dynasty leagues, Montgomery belonged on the waiver wire in most cases. The New England backfield will continue to be led by Rhamondre Stevenson and Damien Harris.

New England Patriots running back Ty Montgomery (knee) is not expected to practice this week, according to head coach Bill Belichick. The 29-year-old hasn't played all season after suffering an injury during the preseason. The Patriots could be shorthanded with Damien Harris (hamstring) leaving during their Week 5 victory. That means, New England might need to lean on Rhamondre Stevenson and Pierre Strong Jr. in their running game. Fantasy managers should stay tuned for more updates on Harris. Although, Strong is looking like an interesting add this week with the Pats low on running backs.

New England Patriots running back Ty Montgomery (knee) has been officially placed on the injured reserve. He has been dealing with an knee injury since the preseason. Now, the team has decided to send him to the injured reserve. That means, Montgomery will miss at least four games while recovering from his knee injury. Damien Harris and Rhamondre Stevenson should see increased fantasy value with Montgomery out of the mix. Pierre Strong could see more chances as well, but Harris and Stevenson are the biggest winners with Montgomery sidelined.
