Running back Ken Walker III is doubtful to play for the Seattle Seahawks this Sunday against the New England Patriots due to an oblique injury.
Walker was unable to practice for the team this week after being injured late in last week's victory over the Denver Broncos."He feels good. He's getting better. Right now it's doubtful and we'll go from there," head coach Mike Macdonald said of Walker.Walker's expected absence would elevate Zach Charbonnet into the starting role, with Kenny McIntosh set to serve as the backup.
Macdonald was exceptionally tight-lipped on the injury status of any player on Friday after practice."I want to help you, I just want to help out team more," he said.Stone Forsythe took over in place of Fant last week against the Broncos and is the presumptive starter this week with Fant's expected absence. Rookie Mike Jerrell is the only other tackle currently on the 53-man roster.
