Kenneth Walker III Has A Chance To Play Next Week

Kenneth Walker III Has A Chance To Play Next Week

12 months ago

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (oblique) is doubtful to play on Thanksgiving night against the division-rival San Francisco 49ers on Thursday after suffering an oblique injury in the Week 11 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, but he will have a chance to miss only one game and return in Week 13 to face the Dallas Cowboys next Thursday, Nov. 30. It's a good sign that Walker isn't dealing with a serious injury, although fantasy managers won't have him available as a starting option in Week 12. Instead, rookie Zach Charbonnet will make his first career start. For the volume increase, Charbonnet will see a boost in fantasy value, but the poor matchup will keep his ceiling lowered as more of an RB3/flex against a stout 49ers defense.
