Ty Montgomery, RB, Baltimore Ravens

Yahoo! Ownership: 14%

With Alex Collins on injured reserve and Javorius Allen logging one snap in the last two weeks, it is clear the Baltimore Ravens are moving forward with a backfield combo of Gus Edwards and Ty Montgomery.

While Edwards leads the way with 44 carries the last two weeks, he has seen just 1 target in the passing game. Montgomery, on the other hand, has been on the field for over 36% of offensive snaps and has 10 targets the last 2 weeks as he compliments Edwards as the passing-down back. The former Green Bay Packer has racked up 119 total yards on 19 touches the last 2 weeks and is likely to see more action this Sunday versus the Kansas City Chiefs.

The last two weeks, the Ravens held a double-digit lead most of the way versus the Oakland Raiders and Atlanta Falcons, leading to just 25.0 pass attempts per game. The game script changes in Montgomery’s favor this week, to a likely heavier pass attack, as the Ravens are 6.5-point underdogs to the Chiefs in one of the week's higher-scoring games of the week (51.0 over/under). The Chiefs also allow the most receiving yards (809) and receiving touchdowns (6) to running backs this season, leaving Montgomery in position to thrive in Week 14.
