Texans get a RB upgrade

It’s fine to seek out a running back who has more than 3,000 yards from scrimmage and 33 total touchdowns over the last three seasons. Montgomery is a good player. He runs tough between the tackles and is also a capable receiver. Because he was splitting time with GIbbs, he also has fewer miles on him than a normal 29-year-old running back.

Scruggs was out of favor in Houston, but trading him and fellow lineman Tytus Howard to the Browns on Monday doesn’t help Houston’s offensive line issue. The Texans’ offensive line ranked 27th in the NFL last season according to Pro Football Focus, which was actually an improvement after a horrific 2024.
