Lions elevate running back Zonovan Knight to active roster
Detroit Lions running back Zonovan Knight is eligible to play in Week 3's game against the Atlanta Falcons.
What It Means:
Knight's elevation from the practice squad comes after David Montgomery suffered a thigh injury in Week 2 and reportedly could miss some time. In a potential matchup versus an Atlanta defense allowed 12.6 FanDuel points per game to running backs, expect Knight to see work behind Jahmyr Gibbs and Craig Reynolds
Knight's current Week 3 projection includes 1.1 rush attempts for 4.5 yards and 0.5 receptions for 4.2 yards.
