Jahmyr Gibbs is expected to receive the majority of the snaps out of the backfield in Sunday's game against the Falcons. David Montgomery is listed as doubtful and is expected to miss the Week 3 contest. Gibbs has been more involved in the passing game than on the ground so far in his rookie season, but his profile in the ground attack should expand with Montgomery out. The Lions still plan to involve the other healthy backs on the roster, so Gibbs may not have a true workhorse role, but he has a good opportunity to produce for fantasy managers.
