Fantasy Impact

Walker did not suit up last week for practice and missed Week 2’s contest. It was reported that he tested out his abdomen before practice, and head coach Mike Macdonald said, “We’ll see,” in response to whether or not he would be available for Week 3. His situation should be monitored to see if he returns to practice, but for now, it appears he is on track to potentially miss a second week, which would set up RB Zach Charbonnet to lead the way.

What the Experts Are Saying

Walker opened the week with a DNP (oblique). We’ll see if he can ramp up as the week goes on. He did work on the side, including running some sprints on Wednesday. I’ll update his outlook on Friday, but right now, I’m preparing for Charbonnet to carry the rock for another week.
