Dolphins' Anthony Walker: Tallies first sack of season
Walker racked up seven tackles (four solo) including 1.0 sacks during Miami's 20-12 loss to Houston in Week 15.
Walker played 98 percent of defensive snaps versus the Texans, continuing to handle the very-down role he inherited Week 9. Aside from Week 12, when he was forced off the field early with a hamstring injury, Walker has notched at least seven tackles in each of his opportunities as a starter this year. He figures to be heavily involved again on Sunday, versus a 49ers backfield led by Isaac Guerendo.

Speaking with the media Friday, Dolphins defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver said Walker will continue to start at linebacker ahead of David Long, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.
The Dolphins made the lineup change last Sunday against the Bills, and Walker ended up leading the team with 10 tackles (four solo) while playing all 59 defensive snaps. Long played zero defensive snaps and 15 on special teams after being an every-down linebacker earlier in the season. It's a big change for IDP players.

Dolphins' Anthony Walker: Held out Monday
Walker (undisclosed) didn't practice Monday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
The Dolphins signed a pair of new inside linebackers in Walker and Jordyn Brooks (undisclosed) in early March, but each offseason acquisition is now dealing with an injury. Head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters Monday that he expects Walker to return "sooner than later," so the 28-year-old's injury is likely minor. However, it's definitely something to monitor as the preseason continues.
