Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Uncertain to practice Wednesday

Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said he isn't sure if Walker (abdomen) will practice Wednesday and wants to take things day by day with the running back, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.

Walker suffered an abdominal injury during the fourth quarter of a 26-20 win over Denver on Sunday, leaving the Seattle backfield in Zach Charbonnet's hands down the stretch. Prior to the final 10 minutes, Walker played 80 percent of snaps and took 20 of the 24 running-back carries, handling a much larger role than what he had for most of last season. The new coaching staff in Seattle could do wonders for Walker's fantasy value, but first he'll need to prove he's healthy before a game at New England this Sunday. The Seahawks seemingly view him as day-to-day and aren't in any rush to provide serious hints about his Week 2 availability.
