Bears notebook: David Montgomery hoping for a Justin Fields boost

Pass receivers aren’t the only players looking forward to seeing what Justin Fields can do for them when he makes his first NFL start Sunday against the Browns.

Running back David Montgomery also figures to benefit from defensive linemen and linebackers hesitating even for a split second to see what Fields will do.

“I hope it’s gonna help. I’m sure it will,” Montgomery said. “Justin is a dangerous weapon with his arm and his legs. When you’ve got a guy who has that skill set in using his legs, you’ve got to respect that. I’m excited to see what that’s gonna bring to the field on Sunday.
