Montgomery wrapped up a successful career with the Cyclones in 2018, rushing for 1,216 yards and 13 touchdowns as a junior. He was named to the All-Big 12 first team in each of the last two seasons.
The 5-foot-11, 216-pounder is considered one of the better running back prospects in this year's draft class and is skilled as both a rusher and receiver.
