Questionable to return Montgomery (finger) is questionable to return Sunday against the Titans,James Palmer of NFL Network reports.
Impact Montgomery was questionable going into Sunday with a hamstring injury, but has injured his finger in the first half. His absence will likely lead to more work for Kevin White.

Suiting up Week 10 Montgomery (hamstring) is active Week 10 against the Titans, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Impact 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. In any case, plenty of touches should be up for grabs, as Kamara ranked fourth in the league in snaps per game among RBs while also commanding a 24.7 percent target share on the season.

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.
Impact 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.

Limited once again Montgomery (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice session.
Impact Montgomery was held out for Sunday's Week 9 matchup against the Falcons, and he's had his reps capped in practice Wednesday and Thursday. Kenny Stills would likely see an increased role Sunday against the Titans if Montgomery is unavailable once again.

Limited participant in practice Montgomery (hamstring) was a limited participant in the Saints' practice Wednesday.
Impact Montgomery suffered a hamstring injury ahead of the Saints' Week 9 contest and was unable to suit up against the Falcons. It's possible Kenny Stills sees an increased role once again in Week 10 if Montgomery is unable to play against the Titans.

Will not play Sunday Montgomery (hamstring) will not play Sunday against the Falcons.
Impact Montgomery never hit the practice field this week, so it's not surprising he'll be held out Sunday. It's likely Kenny Stills will have added opportunity to contribute in Week 9.

Misses practice Thursday Montgomery (hamstring) missed practice Thursday, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Impact Montgomery has missed practice the last two days, which doesn't bode well for his availability Week 9 against the Falcons. If Montgomery can't go Sunday it will likely be Kenny Still stepping up into a bigger role.

Carries once in win Montgomery recorded one rush for four yards in Monday's 13-10 win over the Seahawks.
Impact Montgomery failed to catch his lone target in the contest. Alvin Kamara led the backfield with 20 rushes, while also pacing the team in targets with 11. Kamara should continue to dominate touches in the Saints' offense, leaving little behind for fringe 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.
Impact 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.
Impact 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 (hamstring) needs to miss time.

Minimal offensive involvement Montgomery caught his only target for three yards during Sunday's 26-7 loss to the Panthers.
Impact 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.
SEPTEMBER 20, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
One catch against former team Montgomery caught his only target for five yards during Sunday's 38-3 win over Green Bay.
Impact 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.

Already back at practice Montgomery (undisclosed) is practicing Thursday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Impact Montgomery was carted off the field Wednesday for undisclosed reasons, but he's clearly avoided any sort of serious injury. The versatile veteran has taken most of his reps as a wideout as of late.

Carted off field Montgomery (undisclosed) was carted off the field at practice Wednesday, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Impact 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.

Impact 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 Montgomery 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 Saints' top three receivers would be Tre'Quan Smith, Marquez Callaway and Chris Hogan -- and the former running back in Montgomery offers a different skill set than all of them.
