Durability Story · Watch

David Montgomery's durability file isn’t one dramatic injury — it’s a pattern. The same lower-body soft-tissue themes keep resurfacing. Evidence check: injury reports across 7 different seasons; 5 games missed in the last three (2024: 3 and 2023: 2); 2024 was the rough one at 3 missed; longest on-report absence ran 3 weeks in 2024 (Wk 16–18); reinjury band sits at High. The news desk has been quieter lately, so the structured history is doing most of the talking.

For fantasy, David is startable but fragile: keep a handcuff or streaming backup ready when the next soft-tissue note lands.

Based on injury history + recent reporting. Not a medical diagnosis.
