Kenneth Walker III - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Dealing with new health concerns Walker was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to ankle and calf injuries, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact Walker previous dealt with an oblique issue and an illness this season, so the health concerns that are impacting his reps to begin Week 14 prep are new ones. In the 10 games in which he's been active this season, he's earned a 60 percent snap share eight times, and he's averaged 19.3 touches for 84.4 yards from scrimmage per game while scoring six TDs in those contests. How Walker fares in practice Thursday and Friday likely will determine whether he'll continue to be the 1A in the Seahawks backfield over Zach Charbonnet for Sunday's game in Arizona.

Bottled up in win over Jets Walker rushed 16 times for 49 yards while catching two of three targets for minus-3 yards in Sunday's 26-21 win over the Jets.

Impact Walker had just 16 rushing yards on seven first-half carries while Zach Charbonnet got 18 yards on only two rushing attempts. The lead back then had a 27-yard run called back on a holding penalty on Seattle's first offensive play of the third quarter and was stuffed from the 1-yard line later in the third quarter during a string of seven consecutive plays inside the 5-yard line that wound up being a turnover on downs. Walker ended up with a 16-4 edge in rushing attempts over Charbonnet, but the backup scored the game-winning touchdown in the fourth quarter. Having handled at least 16 touches in all but two of his 10 appearances this season, Walker should get ample opportunities to bounce back from this disappointing outing in Week 14 against the Cardinals.

Falters on 13 touches Walker rushed nine times for 12 yards and caught four of five targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 31-10 loss to the Bills.

Impact Walker was dealing with an illness leading up to Sunday's kickoff, but it was a negative game script that led to an abysmal showing from a fantasy perspective. Seattle's leading rusher wound up being quarterback Geno Smith (5-16-0) on a day where the rushing attack could get nothing going. Walker was coming off of consecutive appearances with at least one touchdown scored, so fantasy managers should simply move past this dud as the Seahawks prepare to host the Rams next Sunday.

Set to play Sunday Walker (illness) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest versus the Bills, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact Walker played through an illness Week 7 in Atlanta, producing 93 yards from scrimmage and two total TDs on 16 touches and a 47 percent snap share. Meanwhile, reserve RB Zach Charbonnet handled 55 percent of snaps and had eight touches for nine total yards. Walker opened the week with an absence Wednesday and then practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, but his lack of a game status ahead of the weekend indicates he should be good for his normal workload of 60-to-70 percent of offensive plays Sunday.

Gets back to limited Thursday Walker (illness) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact Walker gutted through an illness this past Sunday in Atlanta, but he still was able to handle a 47 percent snap share and turn 16 touches into 93 yards from scrimmage and two total TDs. Fellow RB Zach Charbonnet actually saw the field more than Walker, earning 55 percent of snaps, but his eight touches went for a measly nine total yards. Walker has followed up Wednesday's absence with some activity one day later, indicating he's trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Bills.

Still dealing with illness Walker didn't take part in Wednesday's practice due to an illness, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Impact Walker came down with an illness this past weekend that left him questionable for Week 7 action. He ended up suiting up Sunday in Atlanta, and while his snap share of 47 percent was below his norm (60-70 percent) on the season, he still had 14 carries for 69 yards and one touchdown and gathered in both targets for 24 yards and another TD. Meanwhile No. 2 RB Zach Charbonnet earned a 55 percent snap share and tallied eight touches for just nine total yards. Because Walker remains under the weather at the beginning of Week 8 prep, he has plenty of time to put the ailment behind him ahead of Sunday's game against the Bills.
