Lions Beat Vikings; Montgomery Injury Not Serious

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery suffered a knee injury during the team's win against the Minnesota Vikings but is not expected to have long-term issues, as it was confirmed to be a bruise. After being briefly sidelined, Montgomery returned and contributed nine carries for 31 yards. Jahmyr Gibbs stepped up significantly during Montgomery's absence, recording 160 all-purpose yards and two touchdowns. Despite challenges including penalties and a failed fake punt, the Lions overcame a 10-point deficit to secure a victory, with a strong performance from quarterback Jared Goff. Coach Dan Campbell is optimistic about Montgomery's availability for the upcoming game against the Titans, though his practice reps may be limited as a precaution.
