Joining Patriots
Montgomery is signing a two-year deal with the Patriots, independent NFL reporter Dov Kleiman reports.
Analysis: Montgomery may provide depth behind passing-down back James White, who was re-signed earlier this week, or he could see more of his work at wide receiver. Either way, the versatile 29-year-old isn't likely to have a big role, with any fantasy value likely requiring injuries ahead of him.

Logs 31 touches in 2021
Montgomery rushed 15 times for 44 yards while catching 16 of 26 targets for 95 yards over 14 games in 2021.
Analysis: Even when Michael Thomas (ankle) and Tre'Quan Smith missed time at wide receiver or when Alvin Kamara skipped four games at running back, Montgomery rarely handled a significant offensive role. The lone exception was a Week 12 matchup with Buffalo, when the 29-year-old rushed six times for 14 yards while catching five of seven targets for 31 yards. Montgomery will be an unrestricted free agent at the end of the league year, and it's uncertain whether New Orleans will bring him back for another…read more

Ready for Week 18
Montgomery (back) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Falcons.
Analysis: Montgomery played through the back issue last week against the Panthers and will do so again in the final game of the regular season. The 28-year-old has only one offensive touch over the past three games and is unlikely to have a significant role Sunday, especially if Mark Ingram (knee), who's listed as questionable, is able to play.

Limited again Thursday
Montgomery (back) was limited at practice again Thursday.
Analysis: Montgomery has now opened the week with consecutive limited showings at practice, though his participation does bode well for his ability to play Sunday considering he played through the injury last week. With teammate Mark Ingram (knee) unavailable for practice Thursday, the running back may be asked to play a larger role in the Saints' backfield in Week 18 if he's able to play.

Limited practice Wednesday
Montgomery (back) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: The 28-year-old was able to play through the back injury in the Saints' Week 17 win over the Panthers, making his limited participation Wednesday less of a concern. Montgomery's status at practice the rest of week is worth monitoring, though his ability to play Sunday won't likely impact the Saints' offensive approach either way.

Will be available Sunday
Montgomery (back) is active for Sunday's contest against the Panthers, John DeShazier of the Saints' official site reports.
Analysis: Montgomery didn't practice Thursday or Friday, but he will still be available for Week 17. Across 12 appearances this season, the hybrid wideout has totaled 15 catches for 94 yards and 14 rushes for 48 yards.

Questionable against Panthers
Montgomery (back) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Katherine Terrell of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Montgomery fully participated in Wednesday's practice session but was held out Thursday and Friday due to a back injury. If he's unavailable against Carolina, Kenny Stills could see an uptick in playing time.

Doesn't practice Thursday
Montgomery didn't participate in Thursday's practice session due to a back injury.
Analysis: Montgomery wasn't listed on the injury report for Wednesday's practice, but he was unable to take the field Thursday. If he hopes to play Sunday against the Panthers, he'll likely need to practice in some capacity Friday.

Small role in return
Montgomery was targeted twice but did not catch a pass during Sunday's 9-0 win over Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Montgomery was back in the lineup after missing Week 14 due to COVID-19, but he didn't see an increased role, despite the absence of Deonte Harris (suspension). Instead, Marquez Callaway and Tre'Quan Smith hogged playing time at wide receiver while Alvin Kamara and Mark Ingram led the way at running back. Montgomery hasn't been a fantasy option all season, and there are no signs of that changing Week 16 against Miami.

Gets off reserve/COVID-19 list
The Saints activated Montgomery (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: Montgomery tested positive for the virus last Thursday, causing him to miss this past Sunday's win at the Jets. The Saints will now get another healthy body behind top running back Alvin Kamara, with Montgomery rejoining a group that also includes Tony Jones, Dwayne Washington and Adam Prentice. Meanwhile, Mark Ingram (illness) remains on the reserve/COVID-19 list as of Wednesday.

Goes on COVID-19 list
The Saints will place Montgomery on the reserve/COVID-19 list after he tested positive for the virus Thursday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Though Yates' report indicates that Montgomery hasn't immediately been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jets, given the timing of the 28-year-old's positive test, he's highly unlikely to clear the necessary protocols in advance of the Saints' 1 p.m. ET kickoff for Week 14. His expected absence comes at a particularly unwelcome time, as Montgomery had just started to carve out more work on offense in a hybrid running back/receiver role. Though Alvin Kamara's (knee) expected return from a…read more

Eight touches in Kamara's absence
Montgomery rushed four times for 21 yards while catching four of seven targets for nine yards during Thursday's 27-17 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: Montgomery saw a heightened workload with Alvin Kamara (knee) on the shelf. However, Mark Ingram operated as the clear lead back and Montgomery wasn't able to do much with the touches he got. Should Kamara remain unavailable in Week 14 against the Jets, Montgomery would only be relevant as an emergency option in deep PPR formats.

In backfield mix Thursday
With Alvin Kamara (knee) and Tony Jones (coach's decision) inactive Thursday night against the Cowboys, Montgomery figures to see some backfield touches behind Mark Ingram in the contest, Mike Triplett of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: With both Kamara and Ingram (knee) out of the mix in last Thursday's game against the Bills, Montgomery logged six carries for 14 yards (while Jones had 16 carries) in addition to five catches on seven targets for 31 yards. This time around, Ingram is back in action and should lead the way, with Montgomery mixing in as a change-of-pace option, a context that could give him a degree of PPR utility Week 13.

Totals 45 yards
Montgomery rushed six times for 14 yards while catching five of seven targets for 31 yards during Thursday's 31-6 loss to the Bills.
Analysis: Montgomery saw a hike in playing time thanks to the absences of both Alvin Kamara (knee) and Mark Ingram (knee). While Tony Jones led the way on early downs, Montgomery mixed in sporadically while siphoning off a large chunk of the work on passing downs. However, neither back was very effective within an offense led by Trevor Siemian. Even if Kamara and Ingram remain sidelined in Week 13 against Dallas, Montgomery would only be a fringe fantasy consideration in deep PPR formats.

Full practice Tuesday
Montgomery (hand) was able to practice in full capacity Tuesday.
Analysis: The 28-year-old has now practiced both days to open the week, ramping up his activity Tuesday. He now seems likely to play Thanksgiving versus the Bills. With Alvin Kamara (knee) questionable to play, Montgomery may also be an active part of the team's rushing attack in Week 12.

Estimated as limited
Montgomery (hand) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's estimated injury report.
Analysis: The limited designation suggests that the 28-year-old -- who didn't practice last week -- has a chance to suit up for the Saints' Thanksgiving day matchup against the Bills. There should be more clarity regarding his status no later than Wednesday, when the Saints' final Week 12 injury report is released. While seeing most of his action as a slot receiver, Montgomery also has seen some rushing opportunities while lined up in the Saints backfield this season and could have increased usage if…read more

Out with finger injury
Montgomery (finger) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Eagles.
Analysis: Montgomery has mostly been a part-time slot receiver this season, but he picked up a handful of backfield snaps in the first quarter of last week's game at Tennessee with Alvin Kamara (knee) inactive, only to then suffer an injury of his own. Other players might be more likely to play through a finger injury, but Montgomery needs to catch passes to be useful even if he's lining up in the backfield. With both him and Kamara out this week, the Saints may bring Tony Jones (ankle) back from…read more

Misses second consecutive practice
Montgomery (finger) remained absent at practice Thursday, Amie Just of the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Montgomery hasn't practiced since exiting last week's loss to the Titans as a result of this injury. Also missing from Thursday's practice was Alvin Kamara (knee), who didn't suit up against Tennessee but practiced in limited fashion Wednesday. The versatile Montgomery would likely absorb some of Kamara's pass-catching duties out of the backfield if he plays Sunday in Philadelphia and Kamara doesn't, but such a scenario seems unlikely at this point.

Montgomery (finger) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Suiting up Week 10
Montgomery (hamstring) is active Week 10 against the Titans, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Montgomery was limited on the practice field all week, but opportunity may knock here in Tennessee now that he's officially suiting up. With Alvin Kamara on the shelf for this contest due to a knee injury, the backfield is expected to be led the Mark Ingram and Dwayne Washington, though Montgomery does have experience as a running back and could be called upon in that capacity.

Status in question for Sunday
Montgomery (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Tennessee, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analysis: Montgomery didn't play Week 9 against the Falcons due to a hamstring injury, but after putting in limited practices Wednesday through Friday he's a candidate to return to action Sunday. With Alvin Kamara (knee) ruled out, Montgomery, if active, could get in the backfield mix along with Dwayne Washington behind Mark Ingram, while practice squad members Lamar Miller and Josh Adams may be elevated as well.

Montgomery (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice session.

Gets one touch in win
Montgomery carried once for four yards and failed to catch his lone target in Monday's 13-10 win over the Seahawks.
Analysis: Top back Alvin Kamara led the Saints with 20 carries, while also pacing the team in targets with 11. Kamara should continue to dominate touches in the New Orleans offense, leaving little behind for peripheral players like Montgomery. The versatile wideout provides little value for fantasy purposes.

Could see backfield work Monday
Montgomery saw some work with the Saints' running backs at practice this past week, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Montgomery didn't record any touches on offense Week 5, but with Devine Ozigbo currently the roster's only healthy running back behind Alvin Kamara heading into Monday night's game, it's possible that the versatile Montgomery, who the Saints have been using at WR, could see some backfield touches versus Seattle. That said, as long as Kamara is available, he's in line to log the bulk of the team's carries.

No offensive touches
Mongtomery logged one tackle on special teams during Sunday's 33-22 win over Washington.
Analysis: Montgomery led the Saints in special-teams snaps while handling nearly half of the reps on offense. However, he did not touch the ball and was not able to build on the heightened involvement in the passing game (three receptions for 42 yards) he saw in Week 4 against the Giants. Michael Thomas (ankle) and Tre'Quan Smith (hamstring) are both eligible to return after the Saints' Week 6 bye, so Montgomery should continue to struggle for relevancy in fantasy leagues even if Deonte Harris…read more

Minimal offensive involvement
Montgomery caught his only target for three yards during Sunday's 26-7 loss to the Panthers.
Analysis: Montgomery was in the starting lineup next to Chris Hogan, but he again saw less than 15 offensive snaps while Deonte Harris was the only receiver to be used in the run game. With his offensive role unlikely to grow anytime soon, Montgomery remains far off the fantasy radar.

One catch against former team
Montgomery caught his only target for five yards during Sunday's 38-3 win over Green Bay.
Analysis: While Montgomery saw just over a quarter of the offensive snaps, his most impactful plays came on special teams, particularly when he downed a punt at the Packers' 5-yard line. He should remain involved in the offense to some degree even when Michael Thomas (ankle) and Tre'Quan Smith (hamstring) are back in the fold, but Montgomery probably won't be seeing enough playing time to merit fantasy consideration even without those guys in the lineup.

Carted off field
Montgomery (undisclosed) was carted off the field at practice Wednesday, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: The reason for Montgomery's worrying departure from practice remains undisclosed. The sixth-year veteran has been taking the majority of his reps in training camp at wide receiver, and with Michael Thomas (ankle) set to miss regular-season action and Tre'Quan Smith (undisclosed) currently not practicing, the Saints can ill afford to lose any more pass catchers.

Returning to wide receiver
Montgomery is seeing more reps as a wide receiver in training camp, John DeShazier of the Saints' official site reports. "Ty's played running back and receiver for us. We want to focus a little bit more on his reps being at receiver," coach Sean Payton said Monday.
Analysis: Payton said that the recent decision to sign Devonta Freeman started with the decision to switch things up with Montgomery, making it sound as if he isn't a consideration at running back anymore. Instead, the Saints seem to want the six-year veteran to return to the position he primarily played in college in an attempt to stabilize a wide receiver room that has Michael Thomas (ankle) under wraps and Deonte Harris potentially facing legal fallout from a DUI charge. Without Thomas and Harris, the…read more

Re-signs on one-year deal
Montgomery re-signed with the Saints on a one-year deal Saturday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: It sounds as if the contract is more incentive-laden than anything else, but it does come with a $137,500 bonus. The veteran running back played in six games last season, compiling the fewest carries (19) and rushing yards (101) since his rookie year, but almost all that production came in a meaningless Week 17 contest against the Panthers where Montgomery averaged 5.8 yards per carry.

Racks up five touches in loss
Montgomery rushed four times for 14 yards and caught his only target for 13 yards in the Saints' 30-20 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Analysis: Montgomery saw some extended work out of the backfield with both Latavius Murray (quadriceps) and Taysom Hill (knee) out of action, but he was unable to turn his opportunities into meaningful production. The hybrid running back/receiver is slated for free agency in 2021, and his future with the Saints is unclear. Even if he returns, he'll likely play behind Murray and Alvin Kamara.

Inactive for wild-card game
Montgomery (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's wild-card game against the Bears.
Analysis: Montgomery was outstanding in relief last week, posting 105 yards on 18 carries and adding a two-yard reception.

Montgomery carried 18 times for 105 yards and caught one of two targets for two yards during Sunday's 33-7 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: With practically the entirety of Saints' backfield corps in the COVID-19 protocol, Montgomery took on a featured role and gashed the Carolina defense for 5.8 yards per carry. He wasn't very involved in the passing attack with his team playing from ahead the whole game, but it was still a surprisingly effective performance from a veteran who had logged just three offensive touches on the season coming in.

Montgomery caught two of three targets for 25 yards in the Saints' 34-24 loss to the Raiders on Monday.

Looking good in camp
Montgomery was the standout on Day 3 of training camp, Mike Triplett of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Montgomery was signed in the offseason to provide depth at running back, but his versatility as a receiver gives his game an added layer that likely appeals to the Saints' coaching staff. His best season came in 2016 with Green Bay when he totaled 805 total yards and three scores while nabbing 44 passes. He's unlikely to see much work as a running back behind Alvin Kamara and Latavius Murray, but it's possible he sees some work in the passing game given his skill set.

Fewer than 200 yards in 2019
Montgomery played four offensive snaps and didn't touch the ball in the Week 17 season finale against Buffalo. He finishes the 2019 campaign with 32 carries for 103 yards and 13 catches for 90 yards.
Analysis: Montgomery will hit free agency, but the 26-year-old running back's versatility should lead to no shortage of suitors if the Jets don't want him back. While he's not suited to be the focal point of an offense, Montgomery's ability to catch the ball out of the backfield, while also contributing in the return game on special teams, makes him a valuable depth piece.

Three touches in Week 16
Montgomery rushed twice for seven yards and caught his lone target for one yard in Sunday's 16-10 win over the Steelers.
Analysis: Montgomery didn't see much action while Le'Veon Bell was a workhorse against his former team, finishing with 29 touches. New York closes out the season with a Week 17 trip to Buffalo, where Montgomery should continue to split backup duties with Bilal Powell.

Backup duties in loss
Montgomery recorded two carries for five yards and hauled in his only target for five yards during Thursday's 42-21 loss to the Ravens.
Analysis: Montgomery also returned four kickoffs for 93 yards, with a long of 34 yards. If Bilal Powell (ankle/illness) is forced to miss any more time, Montgomery will continue to serve as the top backup to Le'Veon Bell.

Serving as Bell's backup Thursday
Montgomery (foot/hip) is listed as active for Thursday night's game against the Ravens.
Analysis: With Bilal Powell (ankle/illness) inactive, Montgomery is in line to serve as Le'Veon Bell's top backup Thursday night. In that role, he's a fantasy dart in deeper PPR formats.

Questionable for Thursday
Montgomery (foot/hip) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Ravens, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Montgomery was limited in practice during the Jets' short week while tending to the two injuries. With Bilal Powell (ankle/illness) already ruled out for Week 15, Montgomery -- if cleared to play -- will likely serve as the top backup to No. 1 back Le'Veon Bell.

Remains limited Tuesday
Montgomery (foot/hip) was limited at Tuesday's walkthrough.
Analysis: Like the rest of the injured or ill bodies in the Jets' backfield, Montgomery maintained his activity level as he toughs out foot and hip issues. There's a chance Montgomery serves as Le'Veon Bell's direct backup Thursday at Baltimore with Bilal Powell dealing with a combination of the flu and an ankle concern. If so, Montgomery could have some PPR viability, as he's hauled in 11 of his 15 targets in 13 contests this season while averaging 9.6 offensive snaps per game.

Limited Monday
Montgomery (foot/hip) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's injury report.
Analysis: On the heels of a season-high 12 touches for 61 yards from scrimmage this past Sunday versus the Dolphins, Montgomery is dealing with a pair of injuries. The increased usage was afforded to him by Le'Veon Bell's absence due to an illness, but the workhorse was back at the team facilities Monday and estimated as 'full' to begin Week 15 prep. Assuming Bell is himself by Thursday's game in Baltimore, Montgomery will revert to second or third on the depth chart, depending on the health of Bilal…read more

Could become Week 15 starter
Montgomery rushed nine times for 31 yards and caught all three of his targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 22-21 win over Miami.
Analysis: With Le'Veon Bell (illness) out, Montgomery got 12 touches to Bilal Powell's 21. Powell suffered an ankle injury on New York's final drive, and coach Adam Gase wasn't sure of the injury's severity after the game. New York faces a quick turnaround with another game coming up Thursday against the Ravens, and Montgomery would be in line for the start if neither Bell nor Powell can go. Bell is likely to be healthy by then, but this is certainly a situation worth monitoring.

Could benefit from Bell's absence
Montgomery is expected to take on an increased snap count Sunday against the Dolphins with lead back Le'Veon Bell (illness) ruled out for the contest, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Cimini notes that the second option on the Jets' depth chart, Bilal Powell, will likely see the most significant uptick in snaps/touches while Bell is sidelined, but there should still be some extra work to go around for Montgomery and Josh Adams as both players move up a spot in the pecking order. Montgomery, who has put up 114 total yards across 27 touches (19 carries, eight receptions) this season, still represents little more than a desperation play in the majority of fantasy leagues.

Two touches in Week 13
Montgomery rushed once for seven yards and caught his lone target for one yard in Sunday's 22-6 loss to Cincinnati.
Analysis: Montgomery has totaled more than 20 yards from scrimmage only once all season, and that was way back in Week 2. He remains locked into a third-string role behind Le'Veon Bell and Bilal Powell.

Six touches in blowout win
Montgomery rushed five times for two yards and caught one of two targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 34-3 win over the Raiders.
Analysis: Montgomery racked up some garbage-time touches, but he remains a non-factor as long as starting running back Le'Veon Bell is healthy.

Fewest touches of four RBs
Montgomery rushed twice for 11 yards and failed to haul in his lone target in Sunday's 34-17 win over Washington.
Analysis: Recent practice squad call-up Josh Adams actually got two more carries than Montgomery, but all four Jets running backs were able to get some touches in this blowout win. The kick-return carousel continues to spin in New York, as Montgomery wasn't involved in that aspect of the game after getting some return opportunities in the previous game.

Back to returning kicks
Montgomery didn't record a touch on offense but returned two kickoffs for 39 yards in Sunday's 34-27 win over the Giants.
Analysis: Le'Veon Bell got 18 carries and Bilal Powell recorded seven, while Montgomery's lone would-be carry was wiped off the board because the Jets instead accepted a defensive offside penalty on the play. On the bright side, Montgomery was reinstalled as the top option for returning kickoffs after ceding those duties to Vyncint Smith the previous week.

No touches again
Montgomery didn't touch the ball in Sunday's 26-18 loss to Miami.
Analysis: Montgomery was held without a touch for the second consecutive game while Bilal Powell served as the backup running back with two carries. With New York preferring the combination of Vyncint Smith and Braxton Berrios in the return game, Montgomery has been left without a role altogether.
