Walker (oblique) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game at New England, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Walker was injured during the fourth quarter of a Week 1 win over Denver, after dominating Seattle's backfield snaps and touches over the first 50 minutes of the game. Zach Charbonnet took over in the closing minutes and now figures to make his third career start, with Kenny McIntosh likely getting some touches off the bench. Charbonnet averaged 19.7 touches and 48.7 snaps over a three-game stretch last season when Walker was injured, scoring one TD while averaging 75.3 total yards. It remains to be seen if Walker's absence will lead to a similarly huge workload for Charbonnet under a new coaching staff.
