All throughout training camp, there was a lot of optimism on how the Jets were going to utilize Ty Montgomery in the offense. However, he was pretty much a non-factor all season long.

Montgomery only had 32 rushing attempts for the season for 103 yards. In the passing game he had 13 catches for 90 yards. Clearly, Adam Gase didn’t think he fit his offense, as Gase would turn more to Bilal Powell when Le’Veon Bell was on the bench.

Given everything that was said about Montgomery during training camp, the thought was that he was going to be in for a huge year. However, his first and possibly only year in New York wound up being a major disappointment.
