Kenneth Walker III Injury Update for Fantasy Football
Walker appears to be much closer to returning. It's not set in stone, but Walker's managers should be optimistic that he could play in Week 4, as is Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald.
Ken Walker isn’t expected to play Sunday but Mike Macdonald is optimistic Ken could be back in Detroit Week 4

If Walker doesn't play in Week 4, his managers should expect him to return in Week 5. It's possible with backup RB Zach Charbonnet playing well and managing a full workload in Walker's absence that the Seahawks could opt to be extra cautious with Walker's injury.
The Seahawks' Week 4 opponent, the Detroit Lions, boast one of the best run defenses in the NFL, and it would make sense to give Walker extra time if Macdonald is taking that angle.
