Bears activate RB David Montgomery (knee)

The Chicago Bears activated running back David Montgomery off injured reserve in advance of Monday night's game versus the Pittsburgh Steelers, the team announced.

Montgomery, 24, has been out since he suffered a sprained knee in a Week 4 victory over the Detroit Lions.

Fantasy Impact: 

Herbert excelled in Montgomery's absence, averaging over 4.5 yards per rushing attempt. Montgomery and Herbert are both expected to receive ample playing time against the Steelers. A report earlier today from a Bears beat writer said Montgomery could get a bulk of the RB work, but it's hard to imagine Herbert won't be involved as well.
