As noted above by NFL.com, that’s three straight games with a touchdown for Montgomery, since he joined the Lions this offseason. He added his fourth TD in those three games in the second quarter.
Montgomery only had six touchdowns in 2022 with the Chicago Bears. He signed as a free agent this offseason.
