David Montgomery declares for NFL Draft

January 7, 2019 By Todd Kimm

Iowa State running back David Montgomery, who became the eighth player in school history with multiple 1,000-yard rushing seasons this fall, decided today he will enter his name for the 2019 NFL Draft and forgo his final season of eligibility at Iowa State.

Montgomery announced his decision on Twitter this morning.

“The last three years have been nothing short of amazing,” Montgomery wrote via Twitter. “From the first day I stepped onto campus in Ames, it has felt like home. From the roar of the crowd at Jack Trice Stadium, to the quiet of studying for exams, to the warmth that has been shown to me by Cyclone fans, I could not have asked for anything better than my experience at Iowa State. It has truly been the best decision of my life.”

A native of Cincinnati, Ohio, Montgomery was a key part of Iowa State’s resurgence on the gridiron the past two seasons, helping the Cyclones to back-to-back 8-5 marks with his dependability and durability in the backfield.

The two-time first-team All-Big 12 selection ranked third in the Big 12 and 23rd nationally in rushing, averaging 101.3 rushing yards in 12 games in 2018. He reached the 100-yard mark seven times during the season, tying for third on ISU’s season list, and led the team with 13 touchdowns.
