Anthony Walker Fantasy Stats

Veteran linebacker Anthony Walker Jr. has agreed to join the Indianapolis Colts' practice squad, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Walker Jr. played the first four seasons of his career in Indianapolis from 2017 to 2020. The 30-year-old spent last season with the Miami Dolphins, recording 34 solo tackles and one sack in 14 games (eight starts). Walker Jr. has topped 100 combined tackles three times in his career, but the last year he did so was 2021. He's likely no longer a fantasy-relevant player in IDP leagues, but he could make his way on the Colts' active roster early in the year.

Miami Dolphins linebacker Anthony Walker Jr. (hamstring) suffered a non-contact hamstring injury on Sunday but was able to walk off under his own power to the locker room. He's now considered questionable to return. In 10 games, Walker has accrued 46 total tackles (21 solo) and one interception. The next man up is Tyrel Dodson, the former Seattle Seahawks and Buffalo Bills linebacker.

Former Cleveland Browns linebacker Anthony Walker (knee) agreed to terms on Monday with the Miami Dolphins on an undisclosed one-year deal, according to a source. The 28-year-old will be entering his eighth season in the NFL in 2024 after originally being the Browns' fifth-round selection in 2017 out of Northwestern. He missed 14 games in 2022 due to a torn quadriceps muscle and six games in 2023 due to a knee injury, so staying healthy will be key for him. The Dolphins also added tackle machine Jordyn Brooks in free agency on Monday. Walker hasn't played a full season since 2020 with the Indianapolis Colts, but he's had 100-plus combined tackles in three of his seven NFL campaigns. So if Walker is able to stay healthy, he could be a huge asset next to Brooks for the Dolphins.

Cleveland Browns linebacker Anthony Walker Jr. (quadriceps) will undergo season-ending surgery after he tore his quadriceps tendon in Thursday night's game against the Steelers. The timeline for recovery is considered to be five-to-seven months, so the 27-year-old should be able to make it back for the 2023 campaign. Over his career, Walker has started in 63 games and has registered 469 tackles (305 solo) and 4.5 sacks with three interceptions. Walker is an important part of the Browns' defense, but Jacob Phillips will need to step up in his absence.

The Cleveland Browns re-signed linebacker Anthony Walker to a one-year, $5 million deal on Wednesday, according to his agents, Drew Rosenhaus and Ryan Matha. Walker will return for his second season in Cleveland in 2022 after recording a team-high 113 tackles (69 solo), two passes defensed and one sack in 13 games (12 starts) in 2021. The 26-year-old played the first four seasons of his NFL career with the Indianapolis Colts, and he has 100-plus combined tackles in three of his five seasons. Walker is on the IDP radar as a tackle machine, but the upside isn't that great with a total of 4.5 sacks in 70 games (60 starts).

Cleveland Browns linebacker Anthony Walker (hamstring) has been activated from injured reserve in time to take the field for Sunday's matchup vs. the Chargers. Walker, who has primarily been a starter with the Colts over the past three years, made 10 combined tackles and played 95 percent of defensive snaps for the Browns defense in the season opener before a hamstring injury struck. While many members of the Cleveland defense are dealing with injuries that have their status in question for Week 5, the addition of Walker is another reason to buy into the long-term upside of a group that is anchored by Myles Garrett and Jadeveon Clowney.

The Cleveland Browns are placing linebacker Anthony Walker (hamstring) on Injured Reserve on Friday with a hamstring strain, according to a source. Walker should be back in three weeks. The 26-year-old calls defensive plays for the team, so his loss is a notable one, even if it's only for three weeks. He racked up nine tackles (eight solo) in the Week 1 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Walker could be replaced by Malcolm Smith, but the team also worked out free-agent linebacker Reuben Foster on Friday. The Browns defense/special teams was one to avoid in Week 1 against the high-octane offense of the Chiefs, but they'll actually be a fine streaming unit in Week 2 against the Houston Texans without quarterback Deshaun Watson in the fold.

Cleveland Browns linebacker Anthony Walker (knee) returned to practice on Tuesday. Walker left practice with trainers after suffering the injury on August 2 and missed five practices. Walker will be limited to individual work, for now, but his return to the field is good news for Cleveland. The Browns are counting on Walker to call the defensive plays on what they expect to be a much-improved defense in 2021. Walker is worth a look as a steady producer with potential for big tackle numbers in IDP leagues this year.

Cleveland Browns linebacker Anthony Walker (knee) got some good news on the knee he injured during practice on Monday. Walker suffered a non-contact knee injury during the session and left practice early but the issue is not considered serious and he will not need surgery. Head coach Kevin Stefanski told reporters that Walker will miss a "week-plus" as he heals up, giving him plenty of time to return ahead of the season opener against the Kansas City Chiefs. Walker is being counted on to call the defensive plays and offer a steady presence for a Cleveland defense that is expected to take a big step forward in 2021. He is a solid option as a reserve linebacker in IDP leagues this year.

Cleveland Browns linebacker Anthony Walker limped off of the field during practice on Monday, according to reports. Walker walked slowly toward the locker room after tossing his helmet and getting his right leg looked at on the sidelines. After leaving the Indianapolis Colts and signing with Cleveland this offseason, Walker is expected to call the plays on the defense this year. He could have some value in IDP leagues considering his projected every-down role. Some beat reporters speculated that Walker suffered a cramp but the team has yet to update his status.
