Seahawks' Kenneth Walker (shoulder) expected to play in Week 16
The Seattle Seahawks are expected to have running back Kenneth Walker (shoulder) available for their Week 16 game against the Tennessee Titans.
What It Means:
Walker is dealing with a new shoulder injury this week, but it doesn't seem like the issue will keep him out of Sunday's game. While teammate Zach Charbonnet saw increased opportunities when Walker previously missed time, the 2023 second-round pick seemed to cede opportunities to Walker last week, indicating that the Seahawks still trust Walker as their lead back.
Walker has a $6,800 salary on FanDuel and is projected to score 11.6 fantasy points against the Titans, with 6.13 rushing yards, 13.2 receiving yards, and 0.6 touchdowns. The Titans have fielded an elite run defense for most of the year, but have been reeling without star DT Jeffery Simmons (knee) over the past two weeks, opening Walker up to a strong fantasy outing.
