Kenneth Walker III Fantasy

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III found the endzone in the loss to the 49ers on Wild Card Weekend. The rookie carried the ball 15 times, finishing with 63 rushing yards and a touchdown. Walker had a very impressive rookie campaign and will look to build on it next year with Seattle. Walker led all rookies in rushing yards this year and will look to improve on his rookie campaign in 2023. Quarterback Geno Smith will likely return next year, meaning this offense should be as efficient as it was this season.

Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Kenneth Walker III (ankle) is no longer appearing on the injury report on Thursday. The rookie has played a big part in the offensive success of the Seahawks this season, as he amassed 1,215 total yards from scrimmage and nine rushing touchdowns. Removing him from the injury report is huge news, but his two games against the San Francisco 49ers didn't go too well. He could only post 10 and 47 yards, respectively, in both games with no touchdowns. While he was a solid fantasy contributor all season, he'll be hard to trust against this defense.

Seattle Seahawks running backs Kenneth Walker III (ankle) and DeeJay Dallas (ankle, quadriceps) both missed practice on Wednesday. Walker was a full participant on Tuesday, while Dallas has now missed the first two practices of the week. The Seahawks are likely just resting Walker ahead of Saturday's wild-card showdown against the San Francisco 49ers, but Dallas could be in real danger of sitting out this weekend. The 22-year-old Walker sat out with his ankle injury in Week 14, but he has played ever since and has totaled 450 scrimmage yards and no touchdowns in four games. He'll be Seattle's unquestioned lead back in a tough matchup against San Fran's D, which will likely lead many to fade him in playoff lineups. In his two games against the Niners, Walker has 16 carries for only 57 yards and no TDs, adding six catches for 37 yards through the air.
