Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Held in check Sunday
Walker carried the ball 10 times for 29 yards and caught one of three targets for minus-1 yard in Sunday's 37-9 win over the Falcons.While he led the Seattle Seahawks' backfield in touches, Walker found little running room and Zach Charbonnet wound up pacing the team with 46 rushing yards. It was Walker's lowest yardage output since Week 1, but he has just one rushing TD over the last 10 games, managing 599 rushing yards on 4.6 yards per carry over that stretch. He'll try to break out in Week 15 against the Colts.

Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Good to go
Walker (glute) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Atlanta, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.Walker played through the same injury last week, taking 16 touches for 74 yards on a 55 percent snap share in a blowout win over the Vikings. He'll lead the way for Seattle's rushing attack this Sunday, albeit with Zach Charbonnet having a significant role off the bench.

Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Limited Thursday
Walker (glute) was limited at Thursday's practice, John Boyle of the Seattle Seahawks' official site reports.Walker also dealt with a glute injury last week but avoided a designation heading into the weekend before logging a 55 percent snap share this past Sunday against the Vikings en route to 16 touches for 74 yards from scrimmage. Meanwhile, fellow RB Zach Charbonnet handled a 39 percent share of snaps and had 14 carries for 52 yards and one touchdown. A similar breakdown of work likely will occur Sunday in Atlanta if Walker is cleared on Friday's practice report.

Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Leading rusher on 13 carries
Walker rushed 13 times for 56 yards and caught three of four targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 26-0 win over Minnesota.Walker showed no ill effects from the glute injury that limited him during the practice week, finishing as the team's leading rusher and steamrolling DB Isaiah Rodgers on a second-half carry for good measure. Zach Charbonnet (14-52-1) did vulture a touchdown from Seattle's starter, but a significant portion of the backup's work came in garbage time of the shutout victory. Walker continues to be a consistent runner in fantasy, recording at least 50 rushing yards in eight of his 12 starts this season. The 24-year-old has just one rushing touchdown since Week 3, so Walker's fantasy managers are hoping for more work around the goal line against the Falcons next Sunday.

Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Good to go
Walker (glute) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Minnesota, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.He played through the same injury last week and handled a season-high 67 percent snap share, continuing a recent trend of Walker taking the lion's share of Seattle's backfield work. Zach Charbonnet took only six carries last week, but he remains a threat for both goal-line carries and passing-down snaps, which often forces Walker to earn his fantasy points the hard way.

Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Limited again Thursday
Walker (glute) was listed as limited on Thursday's injury report, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.This follows Walker's capped practice Wednesday, giving him just one more chance to prove the health of his glute Friday before the Seattle Seahawks potentially tag him with a designation ahead of Sunday's contest against the Vikings. Over the last four games, Walker has recorded 61 touches for 343 yards from scrimmage and one TD, while fellow RB Zach Charbonnet hasn't been too far behind him with 42 touches for 211 total yards and two TDs.

Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Limited Wednesday
Walker was limited at Wednesday's practice due to a glute injury, John Boyle of the Seattle Seahawks' official site reports.Since the Seahawks' Week 8 bye, Walker has continued to be the 1A in the team's backfield over Zach Charbonnet over the last four contests. Walker has turned 61 touches into 343 yards from scrimmage and one TD during that span, while Charbonnet has notched 42 touches for 211 total yards and two TDs. Walker has a health concern to contend with this week, but he'll have two more chances to get back to full before Seattle potentially tags him with a designation for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Tops 100 scrimmage yards again
Walker rushed the ball 11 times for 71 yards in Sunday's 30-24 win over the Titans. He added three receptions on four targets for 30 yards.Walker suffered a glute injury late in the week and entered Sunday with a questionable tag, though he still comfortably led Seattle's backfield with 14 touches as compared to six for Zach Charbonnet. As has often been the case, Walker was the more efficient back, with four of his 11 carries going for more than 10 yards. He also remained more involved as a pass catcher, logging three catches for the second consecutive game and for the third time this season. The only downside to Walker's performance came around the goal line, as he was stuffed from the two-yard line and then ceded an opportunity from the five to Charbonnet later in the game. Overall, it was still a positive performance for Walker as he topped 100 yards from scrimmage for the second consecutive contest.

Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Officially active
Walker (glute) is active for Sunday's game against the Titans.Head coach Mike Macdonald expressed optimism that Walker would suit up and reports earlier in the weekend suggested the same. Walker's status is now official after he popped up on the injury report Friday. It's unclear whether his workload will be affected, as Zach Charbonnet has cut significantly into Walker's opportunities even when Walker has been fully healthy.

Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Remains lined up to play Week 12
Walker (glute), who is questionable for Sunday's matchup against Tennessee, is expected to suit up, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.Schefter's report aligns with what Seattle head coach Mike Macdonald previously said Friday, when he intimated that Walker was in line to play Sunday despite dealing with a glute injury. Though Walker is expected to be formally cleared when the Seattle Seahawks release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff, it's unclear if the glute issue will result in him ceding more snaps to fellow tailback Zach Charbonnet. As it is, Walker and Charbonnet have been working in a fairly even timeshare for most of the season. During last week's loss to the Rams, Walker tallied 42 offensive snaps to Charbonnet's 36, though Walker was far more productive with 111 yards from scrimmage to Charbonnet's 47.
