Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery is out indefinitely after suffering an MCL sprain in Sunday’s 48-42 loss to the Buffalo Bills, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Montgomery is undergoing more tests and getting a second opinion, but there’s a possibility he’ll miss the rest of the season. Some in the organization believe he’ll be out for the year, Schefter adds.
The running back was one of several injury blows delivered to the Lions on Sunday: Defensive lineman Alim McNeill will miss the rest of the season due to a torn ACL, and cornerback Carlton Davis is out six weeks after fracturing his jaw, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports.
