Outlook David Montgomery
David Montgomery Sidelined for London Matchup Against Jaguars
Montgomery did not travel with the Texans to London and has officially been ruled out for Week 6 against the Jaguars due to a groin injury suffered last week. Head coach DeMeco Ryans noted that the veteran running back is week-to-week, which leaves backfield duties to Woody Marks and Dare Ogunbowale for this neutral-site clash.
With our weekly projection assigning him 0 fantasy points, fantasy managers need to park Montgomery safely on benches this week. He previously displayed his scoring upside with a three-touchdown performance in his Texans debut, making him a priority stash. Fantasy managers should check back often for updates on his practice status heading into Week 7.

Kyle Monangai at Falcons — Practice DNPs Cloud Status for High-Scoring Matchup
Monangai is questionable heading into Sunday after missing back-to-back practices while nursing thumb and turf toe injuries. Head coach Ben Johnson noted he was recently in a walking boot and considered week-to-week, placing his game-day availability in doubt despite Chicago keeping him off injured reserve.
Even if active behind D'Andre Swift, fantasy managers should keep Monangai benched this week. Our models project him for just 5.5 fantasy points on around six carries, and his start rate has tumbled to 13%. Be sure to monitor final inactives before kickoff, as his workload is heavily compromised.
