The Texans plan to make Montgomery their new lead rusher alongside Woody Marks, hoping the former Lions standout can provide stability to their backfield. Montgomery has averaged 740+ rushing yards per season in Detroit and scored 10 touchdowns over the past three campaigns, helping the Lions make the playoffs twice.
Experts have graded the trade positively, with Texans Wire giving it a B+. Montgomery is considered a good fit for Houston's zone-based offense, known for his physical runs and effectiveness in the red zone, where he scored six touchdowns last season.
