    Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Struggles in third season

    Walker (ankle) rushed 153 times for 573 yards and seven touchdowns and caught 46 passes (on 53 targets) for 299 yards and a touchdown across 11 games in 2024.Walker popped out of the gate with 103 yards on the ground in the season opener, but he eclipsed the 80-yard rushing mark only one other time the rest of the season. He dealt with multiple injuries, including an ankle injury that ended his season. When the 2022 second-round pick was healthy, he was the clear starting running back ahead of Zach Charbonnet. However, Charbonnet looked solid down the stretch with 60 carries for 303 yards (5.0 YPC) and three touchdowns over the final five games. Walker should be healthy to start the 2025 season -- the final year of his contract -- and he'll need to perform well and stay healthy to stave off Charbonnet.

    Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Sits out practice Tuesday

    The Seattle Seahawks estimated Walker (ankle) as a non-participant during Tuesday's walk-through practice, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.Walker was a spectator for the team's second walkthrough of the week after tweaking his ankle in Seattle's 27-24 loss to Minnesota on Sunday. The running back could be in danger of missing his fifth game of the season this Thursday in Chicago. if that's the case, Zach Charbonnet (elbow) -- who was listed as a full participant Tuesday -- could be tasked with handling a three-down role in Week 17.

    Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Estimated as DNP on Monday

    The Seattle Seahawks estimated Walker (ankle) as a non-practice participant Monday, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.Seattle didn't actually practice Monday, but it's no surprise that the team indicated that Walker wouldn't have participated if a session had taken place given that he needed an MRI for an ankle injury he suffered Sunday versus Minnesota. Per Henderson, head coach Mike Macdonald had no update on Walker on Monday aside from stating that the running back is getting tests done and that the team will "have a good idea of what it looks like over the next day or two." If Walker can't suit up Thursday versus Chicago, Zach Charbonnet would likely take over as Seattle's lead back, though Charbonnet was deemed a limited participant Monday due to an elbow issue.

    Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Headed for MRI on ankle

    Walker will need imaging to determine the severity of the ankle injury he suffered in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Vikings, coach Mike McDonald said after the game, John Boyle of the Seattle Seahawks' official site reports.Walker exited in what had been his return from a two-game absence due to a calf injury. Even if the imaging reveals good news, Walker will be hard-pressed to recover on a short week for Thursday's game against the Bears. Zach Charbonnet would be in line for a heavy workload if Walker's unable to face Chicago.

    Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Cleared for return

    Walker (calf) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Minnesota, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.Walker returned to full practice participation Thursday and now figures to return to his role as Seattle's lead runner, although it's possible he gets less work than usual, given that it's his first game back from a two-week absence in which Zach Charbonnet filled in more than capably. That said, Walker has been the clear top RB whenever healthy this season, sometimes getting more snaps than Charbonnet on passing downs as well.

    Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Still not practicing

    Walker (calf) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.Walker is seeking his first practice reps since Dec. 4 as he continues with his recovery from a calf injury that has sidelined him the last two games. Fellow running back Zach Charbonnet also didn't practice Wednesday due to an oblique issue, so Kenny McIntosh currently is the healthiest member of the backfield on the Seattle Seahawks' active roster. Practices on Thursday and Friday likely will be telling for who among the trio may be the team's primary runner Sunday versus the Vikings.
