The Detroit Lions may lose another star player for the season following their 48–42 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday as running back David Montgomery tore his MCL and is out indefinitely, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported.
After further testing, it was determined that Montgomery will undergo season-ending surgery, coach Dan Campbell said on Monday.
The running back exited Sunday's game in the second quarter after he limped off the field following a fourth down conversion. He remained on the sideline for the rest of the game.
The Lions received a lot of unfortunate injury news on Monday as defensive lineman Alim McNeill suffered a torn ACL, cornerback Carlton Davis III fractured his jaw and corner Khalil Dorsey suffered a likely season-ending ankle injury during Sunday's loss. The Lions are banged up on defense, but now could possibly be missing a key offensive star.
If Montgomery's season is over, then he will finish with 775 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns on 185 carries throughout the 12–2 season so far.
