ESPN Detroit reporter Eric Woodyard posted on X that Montgomery plans to suit up next week.

Looking at the video of Montgomery's injury, he may have a minor AC joint sprain or shoulder contusion. Either injury could result in 1-2 games missed. Also, Detroit plays on a short week this Thursday – Thanksgiving Day. However, the Lions host Chicago, Montogomery's former team. Montgomery will likely be extra motivated to be active come Turkey Day.

Desmond Ridder has been the Raiders' primary backup but only because  Aidan O'Connell has been on IR with a broken thumb. O'Connell could return in Week 13/14 so this will be a situation to monitor.
