David Montgomery

Lions declared RB David Montgomery, QB Teddy Bridgewater, OG Kayode Awosika, OL Colby Sorsdal, OL Giovanni Manu, DL Brodric Martin, and DL Jonah Williams inactive for Week 17 against the 49ers.

The Lions are playing in what amounts to a meaningless game, with their Week 18 matchup against the Vikings to decide the winner of the NFC North and the team that emerges with the only bye and top seed out of the NFC. Head coach Dan Campbell previously relayed that the team would be approaching their game against the 49ers with a “business as usual” mindset, unlikely to rest meaningful starters.
