Doesn't do much with 12 touches Montgomery (illness) rushed 10 times for 25 yards and caught both of his targets for 15 yards in Thursday's 23-10 loss to the Vikings.

Impact Montgomery didn't seem bothered by the illness that had his status in question for Thursday's game, as he notched double-digit rushing attempts for the first time since Week 10. Detroit's offense was stuck in first gear all game, as the Lions committed six turnovers and were eliminated from playoff contention with the loss. The veteran running back will continue to share the backfield with Jahmyr Gibbs in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the Bears, though neither one has run particularly well of late with Detroit's formerly dominant offensive line regressing.

Suiting up Thursday Montgomery (illness) is listed as active Thursday in Minnesota.

Impact Montgomery missed Tuesday's walkthrough due to an illness and followed it up with a limited walkthrough Wednesday before the Lions listed him as questionable for Week 17 action. Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reported Thursday morning that Montgomery was expected to suit up, which now has come to pass. Working solidly behind No. 1 RB Jahmyr Gibbs over the last six games, Montgomery has reached double-digit touches only once during that stretch en route to 241 yards from scrimmage and three rushing TDs on 43 touches.

Expected to play Thursday Montgomery (illness), who is officially listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Vikings, is expected to play, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Impact Montgomery was added to Detroit's injury report as a non-participant at Tuesday's walkthrough session and then managed to handle limited practice reps Wednesday, so it's always seemed as though he was trending in the right direction. While Montgomery's status won't be official until roughly 90 minutes prior to Thursday's 4:30 p.m. ET kickoff, the expectation is that he'll be able to play through his illness and handle his usual role as the top complementary option to Jahmyr Gibbs. Montgomery has now gone six straight games without recording double-digit carries, though he's scored in three of his last four appearances.

Questionable for Week 17 Montgomery (illness) is listed as questionable for Thursday's contest at Minnesota.

Impact Montgomery showed up Tuesday as a non-participant at the Lions' walkthrough due to an illness and followed it up with a limited session one day later, leaving his status in question for Week 17 action. In the end, his status will be clarified about 90 minutes before Thursday's 4:30 p.m. ET kickoff, but if Montgomery is inhibited or sidelined, Sione Vaki and Jacob Saylors would be the RB options behind No. 1 Jahmyr Gibbs.

Pops up on injury report The Lions listed Montgomery as a non-participant on Tuesday's injury report due to an illness.

Impact Montgomery didn't appear on Detroit's initial Week 17 report that was released Monday, so the veteran running back presumably fell ill overnight or earlier Tuesday. As long as Montgomery is back on the field in some capacity Wednesday, he should be ready to reprise his usual duties as Jahmyr Gibbs' top backup in Thursday's game against the Vikings.

Limited workload in loss Montgomery rushed four times for 14 yards in Sunday's 29-24 loss to the Steelers.

Impact Montgomery played a season-low 13 snaps on offense as Detroit failed to ever get the ground game going in Week 16. The running back failed to reach the end zone for the first time since Week 12, and he has now gone six straight contests without garnering double-digit carries and back-to-back without a catch.
