Ty Montgomery fantasy outlook What to do with the injured Patriots running back

New England Patriots v Las Vegas Raiders Ty Montgomery is a multi-positional player for the . He can play many positions, such as wide receiver, running back, and kick returner, and contribute to special teams if needed. He was added to the running back room along with Damien Harris and Rhamondre Stevenson. Montgomery brings another dimension and a lot of experience as the eight-year pro has been a member of four teams and seen just about everything. Montgomery started the season as the third-string running back, but with a lot of optimism for the challenge ahead. He got the chance to play in a matchup against the Miami Dolphins but picked up a knee injury that restricted him to a mere three carries. Montgomery's hopes for a good start with the Patriots have been dashed, and he is not expected to be activated from injured reserve anytime soon. We recommend that you attempt to trade Ty Montgomery. Failing that, you should release him and stream running backs.

Why you should trade or release Ty Montgomery

New England Patriots v Las Vegas Raiders Ty Montgomery has played in just one game and totaled 15 yards. The all-purpose offensive weapon has never been a solid fantasy pick since he was drafted into the league, so it's unlikely that many players will have him on their team. As the third-choice running back option on his team, he was never going to see a lot of snaps. By the time he returns from injury, he might even be the fourth option. As such, he's not going to be racking up a lot of fantasy points this season. The issue you will doubtless face is that no one will want to take him in trade. If you are to successfully trade him for an upgrade, you will likely be giving away another asset in a package deal. Realistically, it's time to cut your losses and let him go. He won't be returning imminently and it is highly unlikely that this will blow up in your face. It would be best to let him go and keep an eye on the injury reports heading into Sunday. If you notice any running backs go down, pick up the player who will be the next man up. This was a successful tactic last week for anyone who picked up third string running back Deon Jackson. Jackson had a big day and was the difference between victory and defeat for a lot of teams.
