Bettors who took the over on David Montgomery’s season-long rushing-yard prop must be in pain right now, with the Detroit Lions running back being ruled out for the rest of the season with injury.

Montgomery was one of three Lions players who had their seasons ended this week, with a pair of defensive stars also out for the year following injuries suffered during Sunday’s loss to the Buffalo Bills.

As poor luck would have it, Montgomery had a prop of 775.5 rushing yards with the bookmakers and saw his 2024 campaign end with 775 yards after sustaining an MCL tear.

Making this even worse is the fact that his last carry was a two-yard loss.

Gamblers were in understandable shock after learning of David Montgomery’s season-ending injury.

“This nasty work by betting gods,” someone declared.

“Even worst his last carry of the season was a two yard loss PAIN,” a user chimed in.

“People that had big money on this ticket should be in the hospital with him,” said a third.

Life can be cruel like that sometimes.
