Lions confident RB Jahmyr Gibbs can handle larger workload

Pro Football Talk

“We have a lot of confidence in Jahmyr Gibbs,” Campbell said, via the team’s website. “He’s continued to get better and better as the season has gone. Given the opportunity, he’s made a lot of plays. He made some big plays for us. He brings an explosive element. He’s getting better in the pass game, and you see what he’s able to do in the run game. We have a ton of confidence.”

Craig Reynolds and fourth-round pick Sione Vaki are also on the Lions roster, but it’s going be Gibbs’s show the rest of the way and the Lions will need him to keep performing at the same level.

Fantasy Impact:

Gibbs owners look like they could greatly benefit by the injury to Montgomery as we head down the stretch of the fantasy playoffs. We detailed a little bit on Monday that last season, when either Montgomery or Gibbs were out of the lineup, Reynolds got between 7-14 carries in three of those four games (the fourth was a blowout loss to the Ravens). It still remains to be seen just how the team will divide up the carries, but it's reasonable to think Gibbs should at least see a slight uptick in work with Montgomery out.

Dan Campbell says RB David Montgomery (knee) will have season-ending surgery.

Fantasy Impact:

Big blow to the Lions here. As we stated earlier today when we speculated Monty may be out for a while at the least, Gibbs will take over as the team's RB1. Last year, Reynolds got between 7-14 carries in three of the four games he played when either Gibbs or Montgomery were out. Reynolds should have some flex value, at least, and would be worth a pickup if he's on your wire and you're looking for any help at RB.

Lions RB David Montgomery (MCL) out indefinitely

Lions RB David Montgomery is now out indefinitely after suffering an MCL injury during Sunday’s loss to the Bills, sources tell ESPN.

Fantasy Impact:

Montgomery is undergoing additional testing on his knee and getting a second opinion to confirm, but he could be lost for the season, according to the rest of Schefter's post. It's another huge loss for the Lions in terms of their quest for a Super Bowl, but from a fantasy angle it looks like Gibbs will take over the as the clear RB1 going forward. Montgomery has scored 12 TDs this season and his fantasy owners now suffer a huge loss in their lineup for the rest of the fantasy playoffs. Reynolds will likely soak up some of Monty's between-the-tackles work at least, but it remains to be seen how the split in work will be determined. Last season in four games where either Montgomery or Gibbs were out, Reynolds had 7, 10 and 14 carries in three of those games. The exception was a blowout loss to the Ravens were he only received three carries. He had four receptions total in that four game span, so Reynolds could get a decent amount of touches each game for those who may be hurting at the position.

Lions RB Jahmyr Gibbs "should be ready" for Week 1

Good news on Lions Pro Bowl RB Jahmyr Gibbs. Sources say the hamstring injury he suffered is not considered significant, but the team will be very cautious with rest and rehab to make sure he’s 100% healthy. My understanding is he should be ready for Week 1 vs the Rams.

Fantasy Impact:

It looks like the projected Gibbs/Montgomery split is still intact, making them both very fantasy-viable. If Gibbs were to miss anytime, Montgomery should be considered an RB1.
