Last season was supposed to be a mix of Rashaad Penny and Walker, but to the surprise of no one, Penny suffered a season-ending injury after carrying the ball just 57 times. That thrust the then-rookie into the primary role, and he was utilized like a true bell cow with his 228 carries dwarfing those of backups DeeJay Dallas (35) and Travis Homer (19). He got dinged up late, missing Week 14, but he logged 78 rushing attempts over the final three games as he showed his toughness.
One area where Walker failed to impress was as a receiver, catching just 27 passes for the year and managing more than 20 receiving yards in a game only twice. Part of it could be pinned on Seattle's confidence in Homer in pass protection, so with the veteran gone it's possible Walker's involvement in that part of the game plan will increase. Then again, the Seahawks invested a second-round pick on Zach Charbonnet, and unless he breaks down like Penny did, he should have a meaningful role.
After posting 1,215 yards and 9 TDs as a rookie, Walker looks poised for more. While Charbonnet gives the Seahawks a more competent backup, the Michigan State product is the lead back, and his usage should go up merely based on being in that spot from Week 1 on. Walker will also benefit from a lot of light boxes as teams try to check Seattle's passing attack. He's a solid RB2.

 Geno Smith expected to play, Walker listed as Doubtful
Zach Charbonnet expected to start
By: Mike Krueger | Wed Nov 22, 4:09 pm
|  | Pete Carroll says he expects Geno Smith to start tomorrow vs 49ers. Looked very good throwing for the first time since the Rams game today in #Seahawks practice. @thenewstribune
Kenneth Walker is not playing for #Seahawks tomorrow vs 49ers, barring a crazy turnaround before tomorrow night in his oblique strain (Greg Bell on X)
FFToday's Take: Smith missed some time in last week's game with an elbow issue but is expected to play in Week 12. Kenneth Walker is not expected to play as he deals with an oblique injury. Zach Charbonnet is set to get the start in a tough matchup the 49ers defense. He's more of an RB2 in this matchup. DK Metcalf is off the injury report and is expected to play.
| Kenneth Walker suffers oblique strain in Week 11
Could miss time
By: Mike Krueger | Sun Nov 19, 8:04 pm
| | Seahawks’ HC Pete Carroll told reporters that RB Kenneth Walker suffered an “oblique strain that was legit.”
Walker is in danger of missing some time; Seahawks host the 49ers on Thanksgiving night. (Adam Schefter on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: Walker was injured in the first quarter which allowed Rookie Zach Charbonnet (15-47-0, 6-22-0) to handle the bulk of the running back work. With Seattle playing Thursday night in Week 12, it's safe to assume Walker will miss, leaving Charbonnet as a low-end RB1 option against San Francisco.
