Ty Montgomery Officially Says Goodbye to Green Bay
Green Bay Packers drafted Ty Montgomery in the third round in 2015. He played a vital role in the Packers in the ‘Run The Table’ year where they needed a RB, and Montgomery stepped up. People thought he would be the answer to the team’s issue at running the football, but it did not pan out. Monty was soon phased out for Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams. Green Bay traded him midseason for a 7th round pick to the Baltimore Ravens. The former third-round pick signed a deal yesterday with the New York Jets to back up Le’Veon Bell, and he provided a nice note to the City of Green Bay.
Even though Montgomery left midseason, he still had a house and family here in Wisconsin. I do love when people go ‘all-in’ with being residents of Green Bay. Now, it didn’t work out for Monty with him getting traded, but I still respect that the idea of going all-in with being a Green Bay resident. Good luck to him in New York. That’s a solid landing spot for the former Packers running back.
Charlie.
