Patriots' Ty Montgomery: One catch in Week 14
Ty Montgomery was on the field for six of a possible 57 snaps on offense in Thursday's 21-18 win over the Steelers, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.With Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) sidelined Thursday, Montgomery served as Ezekiel Elliott's top backup, while Kevin Harris didn't log any snaps. In that role, Montgomery was limited to one catch on two targets for 17 yards, so even if Stevenson continues to miss time, Montgomery will remain off the fantasy radar as long as Elliott is available. The New England Patriots' next game is Dec. 17 against the Chiefs.

Patriots' Ty Montgomery: May see increased workload
Ty Montgomery may be asked to play a larger role in the New England Patriots' offense Thursday night versus Pittsburgh, Evan Lazar of the team's official website reports.Montgomery could see an increased workload against the Steelers with Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) officially ruled out for Week 14. This season, Montgomery has turned three carries into nine yards while appearing in all 12 of the team's contests to this point, and he'll be operating behind Ezekiel Elliott in the backfield so his fantasy value will remain limited.

Patriots' Ty Montgomery: Mixes in on offense
Ty Montgomery played three of the New England Patriots' 64 snaps on offense and carried once for two yards in Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Chargers.With Rhamondre Stevenson exiting Sunday's game early with an ankle injury that's expected to keep him sidelined for multiple weeks, Montgomery resurfaced in the Patriots' backfield mix. He still lagged far behind Ezekiel Elliott in terms of both snaps and touches, but Montgomery at least had the opportunity to pick up his first carry since Week 5. The Patriots have kept Montgomery active for all 12 of their games to date mostly for his contributions on special teams, but he could end up settling in as the primary change-of-pace option behind Elliott while Stevenson is sidelined.

Patriots' Ty Montgomery: Good to go while Stevenson's Q
Ty Montgomery (illness) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Saints, Evan Lazar of the New England Patriots' official site reports.Montgomery is good to go after dealing with an illness earlier in the week. Meanwhile, starting running back Rhamondre Stevenson (thigh) is listed as questionable. Per Lazar, there's reported optimism that Stevenson will play, but if Stevenson is ultimately limited or out, Montgomery could see more opportunities as a pass catcher out of the backfield.
