Shark Bites

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that Seahawks RB DeeJay Dallas (ankle) is viewed as a "long shot" to play Sunday against the Panthers. He adds that RB Kenneth Walker III (ankle) is still "considered 50/50." We'll watch the status of both players Sunday, but plan as though Walker won't be available for your fantasy football lineups. Even if he turns up active, Walker is bound to carry escalated risk.

Recent Shark Bites

Seahawks RB Ken Walker ran for 97 yards and 2 TDs on 18 carries in Sunday's win over the Panthers. he added 59 yards on 3 receptions, tying for third on the team in catches. Rookie RB Zach Charbonnet worked in more than the previous two weeks, carrying four times to Walker's eight in the first half and leading Walker 1-0 in targets at the break. Charbonnet finished with 9-46 rushing and 1 reception (for minus-1) among 2 targets. Few matchups are likely to be as good as Carolina, which entered the game ranked 31st in run-defense DVOA. But a Week 4 spot against the Giants looks positive as well. Seattle gets a bye in Week 5.

Seahawks RB Ken Walker struggled to get much going vs. the Lions in Week 2, averaging just 2.5 yards per carry on 17 totes. But he turned in a nice fantasy day thanks to 1- and 3-yard TD runs. Walker's efficiency behind a struggling offensive line is a concern. But he continues to dominate work in Seattle's backfield. He handled 17 of 22 RB carries against Detroit and two of four RB targets. As long as that continues, Walker should stay in fantasy lineups as a RB2. He gets nice matchups the next two weeks vs. the Panthers and Giants, before a Week 5 bye.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker (groin) is not listed on the final Week 1 injury report. He was added on Thursday and limited in practice, but he's evidently good to go for this weekend's opener vs. the Rams. Walker is in a nice spot with Seattle 4.5-point home favorites.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker was added to the injury report on Thursday with a groin issue and limited in practice. Walker, of course, missed about two weeks in early August with a groin injury. His availability for Sunday's opener vs. the Rams is now uncertain. Walker's absence would make rookie RB Zach Charbonnet an exciting fantasy play. Check back tomorrow for an update on Walker.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker sat out the team's second preseason game Saturday against the Cowboys. But he returned to full practice two days before that for the first time since suffering his groin injury. We'll see whether Walker gets into the final preseason game, but he'll at least have multiple weeks of workouts before the regular season.
