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 (ankle) was listed as a full participant on Tuesday's practice report. Fellow RB DeeJay Dallas (ankle) did not practice. Injury reports are based on estimations of participation this early in the week. We'll have a better idea of how healthy this backfield is for Saturday's Wild Card matchup vs. the 49ers tomorrow.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker (ankle, illness) practiced fully on Friday and doesn't carry an injury designation ahead of Week 18 vs. the Rams. The Seahawks aren't backing off Walker down the stretch: He's carried a whopping 49 times over the past 2 weeks. He should be in for heavy volume again this Sunday with the 'Hawks 6.5-point home favorites against the Rams. Consider the rookie a solid RB1 in your fantasy lineups.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker (illness, ankle) missed Thursday's practice. Teammates DeeJay Dallas and Travis Homer also didn't practice, both with ankle injuries of their own. We'll need to see Friday's report before giving any sort of fantasy advice regarding Week 18 vs. the Rams.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker (ankle, illness) did not participate in Wednesday's practice. Teammate RB DeeJay Dallas (ankle) also didn't participate. We'll keep an eye on the 'Hawks duo in advance of Week 18 vs. the Rams. Hopefully tomorrow brings better news about their health.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III rushed 23 times for 133 yards in Sunday's win over the Jets. A 60-yard scamper played a big part in his 5.8-yard average, as Walker managed just 3.3 per tote on his other 22 attempts. But volume has often been on the rookie's side. This was his 2nd straight game with more than 20 carries and 5th since Week 6, when Walker took over for an injured Rashaad Penny. Walker and the Seahawks still need to win and get help to reach the playoffs. He'll face a Rams defense in Week 18 that has been tougher against the run than the pass overall. Those Rams allowed a big rushing day to Austin Ekeler in Week 17, though.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Jets. The rookie got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday, which is more than he did last week. We’re expecting Walker to play his usual role in this one. RB Travis Homer (ankle) is inactive

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker (ankle) is officially listed as questionable for Week 17 vs. the Jets. The dynamic rookie practiced in a limited fashion on Thursday and Friday after opening the week sidelined. His teammates Travis Homer (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle) also logged limited practice on Friday. The Jets' defense ranks as the 10th-toughest matchup for RBs in adjusted fantasy points allowed. We consider Walker a mid-RB2 in Week 17. Neither Homer nor Dallas carries fantasy relevance if Walker suits up.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker (ankle) participated in a limited fashion at Thursday's practice. After not practicing at all on Wednesday, this is certainly a good sign. Fellow RB DeeJay Dallas (ankle) also logged limited participation. RB Travis Homer (ankle) did not participate for the 2nd day in a row. Final word on these guys ahead of Week 17 vs. the Jets will come tomorrow.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker (ankle) did not log practice participation on Wednesday. The same goes for RB Travis Homer (ankle).

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker entered Saturday's game questionable after missing practice all week with an ankle injury. But then he racked up 26 carries for 107 yards (4.1 per rush). The rookie added 2 catches for minus-2 yards in the loss to the Chiefs. He gets a tough matchup with the Jets in Week 17.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Chiefs. He didn’t practice all week, so it’s safe to assume that he’s not at 100%. Walker played 75% of Seattle’s offensive snaps with this injury last week, though, and we haven’t heard anything about him being limited today. See where Walker sits in the Week 16 RB Rankings. RB DeeJay Dallas (ankle) is also active today; RB Wayne Gallman is a healthy scratch.

Seahawks RB Ken Walker (ankle) is expected to play vs. the Chiefs today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Walker played through this injury last week, tallying 12 carries and 5 targets on a 75% snap rate. But he didn't practice at all this week and is listed as questionable. Walker clearly isn't at 100%, adding some risk to his Week 16 fantasy profile.

The Seahawks elevated RBs Godwin Igwebuike and Wayne Gallman from the practice squad for Saturday's game vs. the Chiefs. That might suggest some concern over RB Ken Walker's availability.

Both RB Kenneth Walker (ankle) and RB DeeJay Dallas (ankle) are "likely to play" in Week 16 according to Seahawks HC Pete Carroll on Thursday. Dallas falls out of fantasy consideration with the news that his rookie teammate also seems good to go vs. the Chiefs. Walker has been dealing with this ankle issue for a few weeks now but is still considered a high-end RB2 candidate in what is a generally neutral matchup for fantasy purposes.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker (ankle) did not practice again on Wednesday. Teammate DeeJay Dallas (ankle) is moving in a positive direction and logged a limited practice ahead of Week 16.
