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.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III is not expected to play today against the Panthers. That's more pessimistic than other Saturday reports calling Walker 50/50, but the rookie missed practice all week because of the ankle he injured last week. Don't bet on him being available for your fantasy football lineups this week. With DeeJay Dallas (ankle) also expected to sit, Travis Homer becomes an RB3-level option. We've had him projected as the starter since Tuesday in our Week 14 fantasy football rankings.

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that Seahawks RB DeeJay Dallas (ankle) is viewed as a "long shot" to play Sunday against the Panthers. He adds that RB Kenneth Walker III (ankle) is still "considered 50/50." We'll watch the status of both players Sunday, but plan as though Walker won't be available for your fantasy football lineups. Even if he turns up active, Walker is bound to carry escalated risk.

Seahawks RBs Ken Walker (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) are listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Panthers. Neither guy practiced all week, but HC Pete Carroll labeled them game-time decisions. RB Travis Homer (knee) isn’t listed on the final injury report and will be available on Sunday. RB Tony Jones is also on the active roster, while RBs Darwin Thompson, Wayne Gallman and Godwin Igwebuike are on the practice squad. We’ll see if Seattle elevates any of those guys on Saturday.

Seahawks RBs Ken Walker (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) missed practice again on Thursday. RB Travis Homer (knee) was upgraded to full participation. Fantasy owners shouldn't be counting on Walker to play vs. the Panthers this weekend. We'll see how the rest of the backfield shakes out.

Seahawks RBs Ken Walker (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. RB Travis Homer (knee) was limited. So Homer is out to the early lead in the race to be Seattle's Week 14 lead back. He's worth adding in most fantasy leagues while we continue to monitor this backfield over the next few days. The Seahawks also have RB Tony Jones on the active roster and RBs Wayne Gallman and Darwin Thompson on the practice squad

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker is dealing with a strain on the inside of his foot, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The injury is not believed to be serious, and the team reportedly doesn't even consider him out for Week 14 at this point. We'll see how the week progresses for the rookie back. If Walker does miss the game, Seattle would replace him with some combo of DeeJay Dallas, Travis Homer (who was inactive Sunday) and Tony Jones Jr.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III suffered an ankle injury in the 1st half against the Rams. He's questionable to return. We'll watch for updates on his status.

Update: Walker has been ruled out.

Seahawks RB Travis Homer (illness, knee) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Rams. Homer has played a sparse pass-catching role for Seattle this season, catching 10 of 11 targets in 7 appearances. RB DeeJay Dallas could pick up that work tomorrow -- or it could go to RB Ken Walker.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III ran for a pair of TDs in Sunday's OT loss to the Raiders. That covered up a meager 26 yards on 14 carries (1.9 per rush). It was the 2nd straight game in which Walker averaged less than 2 yards per carry and 3rd time in 4 games that he averaged less than 3 yards per rush. That doesn't bode well heading into a Week 13 matchup with a Rams defense that has played the run tougher than either of Seattle's past 2 opponents.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III rushed for only 17 yards on 10 carries in Sunday morning's loss to the Buccaneers. He made up for that somewhat in PPR formats by catching 6 balls for 55 yards. Walker doubled his previous high in receptions while ranking 2nd on the team in targets (8). After a Week 11 bye comes a better matchup with the Raiders.
