Is Kenneth Walker playing on Sunday? Latest on Seahawks RB for Fantasy Football Week 16 - Source: Getty
Kenneth Walker has not played for the Seahawks since the beginning of December and has been sorely missed. Seattle lost against Green Bay in Week 15 and one of the reasons was that their running game never got going. They were outgained 140 to 80 yards by the Packers.
Normally, this issue would not be so pronounced since the Seahawks are a pass-heavy offense. But starting quarterback Geno Smith had to leave the game midway and Sam Howell struggled in his relief. With the backup grappling under trying circumstances, a bit of help from the offensive backfield would have been welcome.
That is where Kenneth Walker comes in. Seattle has recorded 1,320 rushing yards in total all season. The running back has accounted for 542 of them despite being injured for three weeks now. His importance cannot be overstated and that is even more pronounced in the red zone. His seven touchdowns have been vital contributions to the Seahawks' fortunes.
