Summary
David Montgomery exploded onto the scene in his Houston Texans debut, racking up 79 all-purpose yards and three touchdowns on 23 touches — a career-high single-game score — despite the team’s loss to Buffalo. The 29-year-old believes the running game will be the Texans’ offensive identity this season, crediting his offensive line and receivers for building chemistry and taking ownership of every play. While thrilled with his performance, Montgomery is already focused on improvement, embodying the relentless drive teams crave. Acquired via trade for draft picks and lineman Juice Scruggs, Montgomery’s immediate impact signals a promising turnaround for Houston’s rushing attack after a disappointing 2023 campaign — and a thousand-yard season may be within reach.
