Kenneth Walker III - Page 37 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Dominates work, looks good Walker carried the ball 21 times for 97 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 19-9 win over Arizona. He added two receptions for 13 yards.

Impact Walker dominated carries out of Seattle's backfield as expected in the first week without Rashaad Penny (ankle), accounting for 21 of the team's 30 rushing attempts. He displayed some big-play ability by ripping off gains of 34, 21 and 17 yards, and he also recorded an 11-yard rushing score. While Walker isn't known for his receiving ability, it was encouraging to see him involved in the passing game -- even at a minimal level. Walker should carry a heavy workload once again in Week 7 against the Chargers.

Set for starting gig Walker is primed to step into Seattle's primary running back role with Rashaad Penny (lower leg) done for the season, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Impact Walker will get a chance to lead the Seahawks' backfield with Penny set for season-ending surgery to address a broken fibula. The rookie second-round pick had eight carries for 88 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 39-32 loss to the Saints, highlighted by a 69-yard breakaway score, but he's still yet to log double-digit attempts in a single game. There's a good chance that changes Week 6 versus the Cardinals, as DeeJay Dallas is currently the only healthy running back on Seattle's roster, though Travis Homer (ribs) could return from IR later this month. The team will likely add more backfield depth in the coming days, but Walker projects to inherit a lead role in Penny's absence.

Expanded role likely Walker carried eight times for 88 yards and a TD in Sunday's 39-32 loss to the Saints.

Impact Walker made his mark Sunday with a 69-yard TD run in the fourth quarter, but with fellow RB Rashaad Penny having suffered what coach Pete Carroll described as a "serious" ankle injury per Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune, it looks like the 2022 second-rounder is poised to see an expanded role in Seattle's offense, beginning next Sunday against the Cardinals. Look for more context regarding Penny's injury to surface no later than Monday, but it looks like the team could be turning Walker in the coming weeks to lead a backfield that also includes DeeJay Dallas, with Travis Homer (ribs) currently on IR.

Set to play Week 5 Walker (shoulder) is active Week 5 against the Saints.

Impact Walker was limited in practice by a shoulder injury on consecutive days this week, but it won't stop him from suiting up Sunday. Last week, Walker barely saw a third of the snaps, playing second fiddle to Rashaad Penny -- a role that translated to just eight carries for 29 yards. It's unclear if the rookie will carve out a greater piece of the pie against a tough Saints run defense, especially given the recent injury.

Status up in air for Sunday Walker (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in New Orleans, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

Impact Walker made a sudden appearance on the Seahawks' injury report Thursday as limited due to a shoulder issue, which now is making his status for Week 5 murky. Fortunately for fantasy managers, his availability, or lack thereof, will become known about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. Even if he's able to suit up this weekend, though, the rookie second-round pick will be working behind top running back Rashaad Penny, which so far has amounted to 4.3 touches for 18 yards from scrimmage per game and no TDs in four contests.

Dealing with shoulder issue Walker was limited at Thursday's practice by a shoulder injury, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Impact Walker avoided the injury report entirely to kick off Week 5 prep, so his midweek addition is somewhat concerning. He'll aim to bump back up to all activity at Friday's session, after which the Seahawks may provide some clarity regarding his availability for Sunday's contest at New Orleans. Even if he ends up being available this weekend, though, Walker will play second fiddle in Seattle's backfield to Rashaad Penny (shoulder), who followed up a DNP on Wednesday with a full practice Thursday.

Totals 24 yards Walker rushed eight times for 29 yards and caught his lone target for a five-yard loss in Sunday's 48-45 win over the Lions.

Impact Walker was on the field for 25 offensive snaps (36 percent), but he wasn't effective on the ground or in the passing game. Meanwhile, veteran running back Rashaad Penny stole the show, as he rushed 17 times for 151 yards and two touchdowns. Penny is playing like he did toward the end of last season, so Walker likely won't have a consistent offensive role for the time being.
