Lions coach Dan Campbell said this week that running back David Montgomery needs season-ending surgery. But Montgomery isn’t conceding that his season is over just yet.

“We don’t know. We’re kind of working through the logistics right now. Things may change,” Montgomery said.
Asked if there’s a chance he could play again this season, Montgomery answered, “I hope so.”
Montgomery was hosting a coat drive for needy families in Detroit on Tuesday, and he said he’s going to keep a positive attitude and remember how lucky he is.
“I’m good. I’m alive, I’m well, I can breathe, my son’s healthy, my family’s healthy, I’m good,” Montgomery said.
