The Green Bay Packers and fantasy football players alike may need a rookie to rescue their rushing attack after Ty Montgomery suffered a rib injury during Thursday's 35-14 victory over the Chicago Bears.
According to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com, Montgomery suffered broken ribs, which will likely clear the way for first-year player Jamaal Williams to see more carries. While Montgomery is a converted wide receiver, he tallied 457 rushing yards and three touchdowns on the ground last year and helped bolster what was otherwise an uninspiring ground game after Eddie Lacy's injury.
