Ty Montgomery built off his productive game against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 14 with an even more impressive Week 15.
He piled up 162 yards on the ground as the clear lead-back for the Green Bay Packers, while also finding the end zone twice. He was on the field for 51 of 61 offensive snaps, which was a career high and easily led all Green Bay backs.
He now has three rushing touchdowns over the past two games, while remaining involved in the passing game. He has multiple catches in nine straight games and has legitimate RB1 upside in PPR leagues given his usage.
In Week 16, Montgomery will face the Minnesota Vikings, who have been solid against the run, but they've allowed 4.4 yards per carry to opposing backs since their Week 6 Bye, highlighted by last week's 161 rushing yards and 2 touchdowns allowed to the Indianapolis Colts.
If he is still available, adding Montgomery should be top priority as you gear up for this week's fantasy championship.
