David Montgomery’s Sister Joins Him for Emotional Homecoming in Cincinnati

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery is preparing for a memorable return to his hometown of Cincinnati as the team takes on the Bengals in Week 5. The occasion holds deep personal meaning for Montgomery and his family.

Special Support from His Sister

This weekend’s game will be extra meaningful for Montgomery as his sister will be in attendance to cheer him on. It’s a special family moment that Montgomery says he’ll cherish for a long time.

“This is really special for me because my sister gets to come to the game,” Montgomery said. “I’m super excited that she’ll be able to be there.”

Roots in Cincinnati

Montgomery grew up in Cincinnati and made a name for himself at Mount Healthy High School before starring at Iowa State University. Although he has played against the Bengals before, this will be his first time competing in front of his hometown crowd.

“I think it’s just going to be a rush of emotions,” he shared. “A bunch of my family members are coming to support me.”

Lions’ Strategy

The Lions’ running game, powered by Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs, has been a key part of their success this season. Fans can expect the team to lean on both backs as they take on a tough Bengals defense.

• This game marks Montgomery’s first return to Cincinnati since college.
• His family will be in attendance to support him.
• The Lions are expected to feature Montgomery heavily in their offensive plan.

As he takes the field in front of familiar faces, Montgomery will carry not just team pride but also the encouragement of his family and community. It’s a homecoming that promises to be both meaningful and inspiring.
