Montgomery suffered the injury on receiving a handoff from quarterback Mitchell Trubisky, then would be walk off the field on his own power. The team believes it’s not a knee injury, but it still raises concern for other areas.
After practice head coach Matt Nagy took the podium and said Montgomery suffered a groin strain, but are waiting for further testing. Still, it sounds like Montgomery could’ve avoided a serious injury.
