Kenneth Walker III Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker (shoulder) only got in a limited practice on Friday this week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Titans. HC Pete Carroll said Friday that Walker is “good to go” for this one, but check back around 11:30 am ET on Sunday to make sure he’s active.

Seahawks RB Ken Walker (shoulder) missed practice again on Thursday. It's possible that the team is taking it easy on him on a short week, but it's also possible that Walker's status for Sunday's game vs. the Titans is in doubt. We'll learn more when we get Seattle's final injury report on Friday afternoon.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker (shoulder) did not practice on Wednesday. He seemed to come out of Monday night's win over the Eagles okay, so this is likely more of a rest day. We'll see if Walker gets back on the practice field tomorrow.

Seahawks RB Ken Walker III logged 19 carries for 86 yards and a TD in Week 15’s win vs. the Eagles. The second-year back also added 3 receptions for 26 yards as a receiver in the contest. Since returning in Week 14 after a three-game absence with an oblique injury, Walker III is firmly running ahead of rookie teammate Zach Charbonnet as Seattle’s lead back. In their last two games, he’s out-touched (carries + receptions) Charbonnet 34 to 14 and accounted for an 85.2% snap share of the Seahawks’ early downs in that span. Walker III should again see a hefty amount of work in Week 16 vs. the Titans.

Seahawks RBs Ken Walker (oblique) and Zach Charbonnet (knee) are active for today’s game vs. the 49ers. Both put in full practices on Friday, so we’re expecting them to be somewhat close to 100%. Walker figures to resume his role as lead back, but his projection takes a hit with QB Drew lock under center.

Seahawks RBs Ken Walker (oblique) and Zach Charbonnet (knee) are both expected to play vs. the 49ers this afternoon, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. That's been our expectation after both guys were full participants in Friday's practice. Walker figures to return as Seattle's lead back, but he sits lower than usual in the Week 14 RB rankings in a tough matchup and with QB Drew Lock likely at the controls.

Seahawks RBs Ken Walker (oblique) and Zach Charbonnet (knee) are listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the 49ers. They both put in full practices on Friday. "Both of those guys looked pretty good," HC Pete Carroll said afterward. "They looked pretty good. We've got to see what happens tomorrow, see how they feel and all that, but both guys worked today." We're tentatively expecting both Walker and Charbonnet to play on Sunday. In that case, Walker would likely return to his role as primary early-down back, with Charbonnet replacing him for the majority of passing downs.

Seahawks RBs Ken Walker (oblique) and Zach Charbonnet (knee) were both limited in Thursday's practice. That gives both guys a shot to play vs. the 49ers this weekend. We'll see what they do on Friday and how they're listed on the final injury report.

Seahawks RBs Ken Walker (oblique) and Zach Charbonnet (knee) were sidelined for Wednesday's practice. Walker has missed the last two games with this oblique injury. Charbonnet suffered what HC Pete Carroll called a bruised knee late in last Thursday night's loss to the Cowboys. Both guys are seemingly in danger of missing Sunday's game vs. the 49ers. Their absences would leave Seattle with RBs DeeJay Dallas and Kenny McIntosh.

Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet suffered a knee injury late in Thursday night's loss to the Cowboys. HC Pete Carroll said afterward that Charbonnet bruised the knee when he banged it against the turf and that it shouldn't be an issue going forward. The rookie operated as Seattle's feature back before the injury, finishing with 19 carries for 60 yards and a score. He added one catch on two targets for 39 yards, showing good burst on a well-designed screen. Charbonnet and backfield mate Ken Walker (oblique) get 10 days to heal up for a Week 14 rematch with the 49ers. Charbonnet was limited to 58 scoreless yards in their Thanksgiving meeting.

Seahawks RB Ken Walker (oblique) is inactive for tonight's game vs. the Cowboys. He didn't practice all week, and we still don't have a timetable for his return. Zach Charbonnet gets another game as Seattle's top back tonight after garnering 14 carries and four targets on an 88% snap rate on Thanksgiving.

Seahawks RB Ken Walker (oblique) did not practice all week and is listed as doubtful for Thursday night's game vs. the Cowboys. Only two players listed as doubtful across the entire league have wound up playing this year (Maxx Crosby and Darius Slayton, both last week). Walker obviously needs to be on fantasy benches. His absence should mean another feature-back role for Zach Charbonnet, who played 88% of Seattle's offensive snaps and handled 18 of 21 RB opportunities last week. See where Charbonnet lands in the Week 13 RB Rankings.

Seahawks RB Ken Walker (oblique) did not practice on Tuesday. He's seemingly unlikely to play vs. the Cowboys on Thursday night, which would mean another game as feature back for Zach Charbonnet. The rookie played 88% of Seattle's offensive snaps last week and handled 18 of 21 RB opportunities. Our current Week 13 RB Rankings assume Walker is out on Thursday.

Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet logged 14 carries for just 47 rushing yards and 4 catches for 11 yards against the 49ers on Thursday night. A struggling Seattle offense didn’t help. QB Geno Smith was clearly limited by his right triceps injury. The Seahawks held the ball for just 7:29 of the first half and trailed by 11+ points throughout the second half. Charbonnet’s usage was strong, at least: 87.5% snap rate and 85.7% of RB touches. Unfortunately for him, Ken Walker III (oblique) is expected back soon and the remaining schedule ranks toughest for RBs per our adjusted fantasy points allowed. That includes facing the Cowboys in Week 13 and a rematch against San Francisco the weekend after. Keep your expectations for this backfield in check the rest of the way.

Seahawks RB Ken Walker (oblique) is inactive for tonight’s game vs. the 49ers. RB Zach Charbonnet should dominate backfield work in this one. RBs DeeJay Dallas and Kenny McIntosh are active behind him.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport confirms that Seahawks RB Ken Walker (oblique) won't play vs. the 49ers tonight. But Rapoport adds that Walker "does not have a major injury" and "has a chance" to play in Week 13. It sounds like Zach Charbonnet might get just one game as Seattle's feature back. We highlighted the rookie as a potential sell candidate in this week's Fantasy Football Trade Targets, Sells, and Holds.
