“I used to joke in college and when I got here a little bit that I’m a running back who learned how to play receiver,” Ty Montgomery said. “Who would have thought I ended up in the running back room?”

Running back wasn’t foreign to Montgomery. He played there throughout most of his childhood before getting to high school.

He only made the switch to receiver because of the pass-heavy system his high school ran at the time.

“My ball coach in high school asked me if I would play receiver to help,” Montgomery said. “I was like, ‘Yeah, I’ll do anything to play varsity.’ He was like, ‘To be honest, we’re not going to run the ball so we’re just going to have you play receiver.’ I was like ‘OK.’”

He carried the ball 34 times for 334 yards and four touchdowns at Stanford

“I do recall a young man being excited to have the opportunity to play more, excited to have more of a role,” Bennett said. “He’s certainly one of the guys who have made the most of his opportunities. You look at what we were able to accomplish this past game, broke a lot of tackles, played with very good balance and accelerated his feet on contact.”

“It felt really natural, personally,” Montgomery said. “Nothing too difficult. Just learning all the language. It is a different language, for sure. I don’t worry about coverage anymore. I worry about fronts. Coverages are still coverages. Now I’m learning about fronts and different blitzes.”

Glad to see him getting recognition, just hope they don't completely change how they're using him.

But truthfully, this information was out long time ago. I kept telling folks he'd been working as RB for over a month before he took a RB snap, but all I got was "it takes more than looking like a RB to play RB" jargon lol

I think when Montgomery was drafted, nerdmann (maybe someone else?) kept saying Montgomery fits the mold of RB more than WR, so credit to him, or whomever that was.

Not sure whose "jargon" you're speaking of; only guy "critical" of Monty at RB in any way that I recall was wpr. But, he expressly stated he liked Monty lining up there and even running some from there; but was suspect of Monty holding up to the punishment a RB takes.

Wpr's point was realized in 2Q at 2:27 when Monty ran right for 6 and hurt his right [ball carrying arm] bicep. There was minimal contact, I have no idea how he got hurt there and he was writhing on SL.

Monty came back in 3Q 9:51 and was TFL'd when Taylor blew a seal block on McDaniel. On next play Monty in slot chipped on Avril and caught pass in flat and he didn't look injured. At 3Q 5:45 he ran off tackle for 6 [looking like a real RB] but when he got up his right arm was hurting; but the tough SOB tried to hide it for fear they'd yank him.

I still think he is kind of a little too tall for a running back. But hopefully the ninja can keep defenses off guard.

Of the running backs in the top 10 in rushing yards this year, only Lamar Miller (5'10") and LeSean McCoy (5'11") are shorter than 6'0".

6.5 per, is that on the season or just today? Pretty sure he was over 5.0 coming in.

Any word on his ankle?
