Kenneth Walker III's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said that running back Kenneth Walker III (calf) is considered day-to-day. There have been positive signs for Walker, and his injury isn't considered long-term. Walker will not undergo anymore tests, which will give him a chance to play in Week 15 against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday Night Football after he was inactive for the Week 14 win over the division-rival Arizona Cardinals. The 24-year-old's availability for this Sunday will likely come down to how much he can do in practice this week, so check back on his status. Seattle shouldn't be in a rush to get him back on the field after backup Zach Charbonnet went off for 137 rushing yards and two touchdowns while adding seven receptions for 59 yards last week against Arizona. If Walker does return to face the Packers, he'll be a much riskier RB2 in fantasy at risk of losing more touches to Charbonnet.

Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said the team is unsure on the status of running back Kenneth Walker III's (calf) heading into a Week 15 date with the Green Bay Packers. The Seahawks were having tests done on Walker's calf on Monday and they are hoping to know more in the coming days after the lead back was inactive for the Week 14 win over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. Seattle probably isn't in any rush to bring the 24-year-old back if he's not ready after backup Zach Charbonnet stepped in for 29 touches, 193 scrimmage yards and two rushing touchdowns against Arizona on an 80% snap share with Walker out. Walker is no longer dealing with an ankle issue, but it remains to be seen if he'll be active this weekend against Green Bay. And if Walker does return, fantasy managers probably shouldn't be surprised if he shares more work with Charbonnet after his big Week 14 performance.

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (ankle, calf) has already been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Arizona Cardinals. However, the 24-year-old may not be out long, with ESPN's Adam Schefter reporting there's a chance he'll be back on the field for the Week 15 encounter against the Green Bay Packers. In the meantime, Zach Charbonnet, who found the end zone versus the Jets in Week 13, has the potential to have his best showing of the 2024-2025 campaign.

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (ankle, calf) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. Walker missed practice every day this week but was initially listed as questionable on Seattle's injury report on Friday. The 24-year-old came out of last Sunday's game with ankle and calf injuries. He played 60% of the snaps, rushing 16 times for 49 yards while catching two of three targets for minus-3 yards in Sunday's 26-21 win over the Jets. Look for Zach Charbonnet to see an increased workload, with Kenny McIntosh backing him up while Walker is sidelined. Seattle also elevated running back George Holani from the practice squad earlier on Saturday. Charbonnet becomes a mid-range RB2 and should be started in all leagues with six teams on the bye.

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet suddenly finds himself in a potential starting position in Week 14 when Seattle travels to Arizona to play the Cardinals. With starting running back Kenneth Walker III (ankle/calf) experiencing a mid-week downgrade from limited participant to DNP in practice, his status for this weekend is up in the air. Charbonnet was an RB2 in games Walker missed earlier this season. He is always a solid bet to score a goal line touchdown, and he is a solid pass catcher. His volume should be massive if Walker misses given the Seahawks' attempt as well to reestablish the running game over the last few weeks. If Walker plays, Charbonnet will fall right back into his usual backup role. Even if Walker is limited, Charbonnet likely does not merit much starting consideration in fantasy.
