Texans' David Montgomery: Considered week-to-week
Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans said Monday that Montgomery (groin) is considered week-to-week, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Montgomery exited Sunday's 26-3 win over the Titans midway through the second quarter due to the groin injury and was unable to return. Based on Ryans' comments a day later, Montgomery looks to be trending toward missing his first game of the season Week 6, when the Texans travel to London to face the Jaguars on Sunday. Montgomery's expected absence in Week 6 should clear the way for Woody Marks to take on a lead role out of the Houston backfield, with Dare Ogunbowale and practice-squad members Jawhar Jordan and Deuce Vaughn representing candidates to handle depth roles. Since scoring three touchdowns on 23 touches in a Week 1 loss to the Bills, Montgomery has failed to find the end zone while being limited to 78 yards on 32 carries (2.4 average) and four catches for 48 yards over the Texans' subsequent four contests.

Texans' David Montgomery: Not returning to Sunday's game
The Texans ruled out Montgomery (groin) for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Titans.
Houston will be left with Woody Marks and Dare Ogunbowale as its available options out of the backfield for the rest of the afternoon after Montgomery was unable to return following his departure from the game midway through the second quarter. Prior to exiting, Montgomery gained 11 yards on five carries and went without a target.

Texans' David Montgomery: Injures groin Sunday
Montgomery suffered a groin injury during Sunday's game at Tennessee.
Prior to his exit in the middle of the second quarter, Montgomery had five carries for 11 yards. While Montgomery is considered questionable to return after walking slowly to the locker room, Woody Marks will take on lead-back duties for the Texans in the meantime.

Texans' David Montgomery: Bottled up in Week 4 loss
Montgomery carried the ball 10 times for 24 yards and added 19 receiving yards on a hook-and-ladder play in Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Cowboys.
The veteran RB's longest gain on the ground went for only six yards, and Woody Marks scampered for the Texans' only rushing TD of the afternoon on a six-yard run just before the two-minute warning in the fourth quarter -- a score set up by Montgomery's 19-yard dash following a lateral from Dalton Schultz just one play before. Montgomery hasn't found the end zone himself or reached 50 scrimmage yards since Week 1, a streak he'll look to end in a Week 5 road trip to Tennessee.

Texans' David Montgomery: Running lanes not materializing
Montgomery rushed 11 times for 33 yards while catching both of his targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Colts.
Montgomery was stuffed for no gain on a 4th-and-1 in Colts territory in the first quarter, and he watched Woody Marks convert a one-yard rushing touchdown in the fourth quarter. Marks has 29 touches to Montgomery's 44 through three games, and it's concerning that Montgomery isn't monopolizing short-yardage opportunities after scoring three short TDs in the season opener. Neither running back has found much running room behind Houston's underwhelming offensive line, and Montgomery is averaging just 2.8 yards per carry heading into a Week 4 home game against the Cowboys.

Texans' David Montgomery: Stymied in Week 2 loss
Montgomery rushed six times for 10 yards and brought in both his targets for 14 yards in the Texans' 20-6 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.
Neither Montgomery nor backfield mate Woody Marks was able to make any inroads against what looks to be a vastly improved Bengals run defense, although after also being held to 3.0 yards per carry in Week 1, it's clear Montgomery's early issues with efficiency can at least partly be blamed on the Texans' offensive line. Montgomery also saw Marks outpace him by two carries and four targets, yet that may have been largely a function of a game script that saw Houston in catch-up mode. Montgomery should revert back to a lead role in a Week 3 road divisional clash against the Colts next Sunday.

Texans' David Montgomery: Three total TDs in Texans debut
Montgomery rushed 20 times for 60 yards and two touchdowns while catching all three of his targets for 19 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-31 loss to the Bills.
Montgomery scored Houston's first two touchdowns of the season with a one-yard run in the first quarter followed by an 18-yard run in the second. The offseason trade acquisition from Detroit added a third touchdown on a seven-yard catch as the Texans pulled ahead 28-27 early in the fourth quarter, but Houston's vaunted defense failed to hold that lead. Montgomery's 23 touches in his Texans debut were more than he had in any of his 17 regular-season appearances in 2025 for Detroit, where he had to share the backfield with Jahmyr Gibbs. Woody Marks had 10 touches for 40 yards in a change-of-pace role behind Montgomery, but the latter is clearly Houston's top running back heading into a Week 2 home game against the Bengals.
