Ivan Fears has high expectations for Patriots RB Ty Montgomery

The New England Patriots need all hands on deck for the 2023 season, and that includes running back Ty Montgomery.

Montgomery was thought of as a potential key piece for the running back room last season, but his year was cut short when he suffered a knee injury in Week 1 against the Miami Dolphins. It ended up being a season-ending injury, and he was placed on injured reserve.

Montgomery’s return will be a welcome development for Rhamondre Stevenson, who was forced to carry most of the load in 2022. Stevenson exceeded 90 percent of the snaps three times over the course of the season.
