• Raiders' Quay Walker: Dealing with chest issue

  Rotowire Oct 21, 2026

  Walker (chest) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday. Walker played all 68 of the Raiders' defensive snaps in Week 6 versus the Bills, so it's not immediately clear when he picked up the injury. In any case, as long as he can upgrade to full participation at practice Thursday or Friday, he'll be in good shape to suit up Sunday versus the Rams.

• Raiders' Quay Walker: Picked up by Raiders

  Rotowire Mar 9, 2026

  Walker agreed to terms Monday on a three-year, $40.5 million contract with Las Vegas, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. Walker logged a career year with the Packers in 2025, racking up 128 tackles (58 solo), including 2.5 sacks, and five pass defenses over 14 regular-season games, and he'll now bring his talents to the Raiders as the team's new starting middle linebacker. The landing spot is positive for Walker's fantasy value in IDP formats, as new defensive coordinator Rob Leonard figures to rely on the soon-to-be 26-year-old linebacker as an every-down playmaker and schematic focal point.

• Packers' Quay Walker: Career year in 2025

  Rotowire Jan 8, 2026

  Walker tallied 128 tackles (58 solo), including 2.5 sacks, and five pass defenses over 14 regular-season games with the Packers in 2025. Despite missing two games in November due to a neck injury, Walker managed to post a career high in combined tackles while logging 2.5 sacks for a third consecutive season. He posted at least nine tackles in nine games during the 2025 season, including in each of his final four appearances before sitting out of Week 18 against the Vikings for rest purposes. The Packers opted to decline Walker's fifth-year team option in May, and with the two sides unable to reach an agreement on an extension, the 2022 first-rounder will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent, though Green Bay could utilize the franchise tag on the Georgia product.

• Packers' Quay Walker: Resting Week 18

  Rotowire Jan 4, 2026

  Walker (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports. The Packers are locked in for the NFC's seventh seed heading into the postseason, so Walker will be held out of Sunday's regular-season finale while others will likely operate under a snap count. His absence gives both Ty'Ron Hopper and Jamon Dumas-Johnson more opportunities to log snaps on defense in Week 18. Walker will end the 2025 regular season with a career-high 128 tackles (58 solo), including 2.5 sacks, and five pass defenses across 14 games.

Walker's efforts Saturday has him up to a career-high 128 tackles (58 solo), including 2.5 sacks, and five pass defenses through 14 regular-season games.

  Rotowire Dec 22, 2025

  Walker registered 14 tackles (five solo), including one tackle for a loss, and one pass defense during the Packers' 22-16 overtime loss to the Bears on Saturday.

Walker has posted at least nine stops in three consecutive games and is up to 116 combined tackles through 13 regular-season games, which puts him within striking distance of his career high that he set in his rookie year in 2022 (121 tackles across 17 regular-season games).
