Lions running back David Montgomery will likely be out for "a little bit" due to a rib cartilage injury, coach Dan Campbell said Monday.

"He's probably going to be down for a little bit. I don't know how long ... at his position, that's not an easy thing to deal with, so we'll just take it as it comes, but I think there's a chance we won't have him for a little bit," Campbell said.

Montgomery was injured at 7:34 in the second quarter Sunday in Detroit's 20-6 victory over the Buccaneers, after catching a short pass to the left side from quarterback Jared Goff.
