David Montgomery vs Justice Hill: Who Should You Start?
If you are choosing between David Montgomery and Justice Hill for your lineup, you are not alone. David Montgomery finished the 2025 season at 9.1 PPG for the Houston Texans (17 games), and Justice Hill averaged 5.5 for the Baltimore Ravens (10 games).
That 3.6-point weekly advantage for David Montgomery is meaningful but not automatic. Fantasy football is a week-to-week sport, and the answer to "who should I start" often changes based on opponent, recent form, and game environment. Season averages set the baseline; weekly context makes the call.
Both profile as early-down workhorses. David Montgomery ran for 716 yards and 8 touchdowns; Justice Hill posted 93 and 2. Goal-line share, red zone touches, and which team is favored are usually the tiebreaker when neither back offers passing-game volume.
Both share a Week 14 bye, which matters for roster construction. If you are stacking running backs this deep on your bench, plan your replacement running back early.
