Position: WR/KR

Talking about a player who has stepped up in need for the Packers’ so far in 2015, Ty Montgomery certainly fits that mold.

With Jordy Nelson enduring a season-ending injury, and with Davante Adams missing time as well, Montgomery has stepped into the Packers lineup and excelled at wide receiver. He has also been sensational in the kick return game, as he already reached over 200 yards on seven returns this season.

Forced into a tough situation, Montgomery has played very respectably at the wide receiver position. He currently has 15 receptions with 136 yards and two touchdowns this year after coming into the season fourth on the Packers depth chart.
