Does this mean that Kenneth Walker is absolutely playing in Week 4 against the Lions? Of course, it doesn’t. In fact, it’s only a baby step in the right direction considering the amount of time he’s already missed up to this point. However, it’s the first progress towards a return we’ve seen since he began missing practices in the wake of his strong Week 1 performance. Zach Charbonnet has filled in serviceably the past two weeks, taking nearly every snap in the Seattle backfield while Walker has been on the mend. However, if Week 1 was any indication about what the backfield share will look like when Walker is healthy, Charbonnet will likely be a non factor once Walker re-enters the lineup. With the Seahawks not slated to take the field until Monday night against the Lions, Walker will have an extra day to try and get right in time to suit up for Week 4. However, fantasy managers shouldn’t bank on a Walker start, especially if they have more secure options playing in the games on Sunday. The best course of action would be to assume that Walker will miss.
