Imagine a super-strong runner on a football field! That's David Montgomery. He's a running back, which means his job is to carry the football and run past other players to score points.

He plays for a team called the Detroit Lions. Before playing for the Lions, he played for another team, the Chicago Bears. He was chosen to play in the big leagues after playing college football, which is like football for grown-ups at a special school called Iowa State.

David Montgomery has a really cool nickname: 'Knuckles'! It sounds tough, right? It's probably because he's strong and determined when he plays.
