Walker missed the past two games, including a close loss to the Cowboys on Thursday in which replacement starter Zach Charbonnet suffered a knee bruise midway through the fourth quarter. Prior to his injury, the rookie was on track to play more than three-fourths of Seattle's offensive snaps for a second straight week, with backup DeeJay Dallas rarely seeing the field apart from two-minute drills and third downs. It sounds like Charbonnet has a better chance than Walker to suit up against San Francisco, though we'll have a better idea next week once the Seahawks resume practice.

Walker missed the past two games, including a close loss to the Cowboys on Thursday in which replacement starter Zach Charbonnet suffered a knee bruise midway through the fourth quarter. Prior to his injury, the rookie was on track to play more than three-fourths of Seattle's offensive snaps for a second straight week, with backup DeeJay Dallas rarely seeing the field apart from two-minute drills and third downs. It sounds like Charbonnet has a better chance than Walker to suit up against San Francisco, though we'll have a better idea next week once the Seahawks resume practice.
Walker missed Tuesday's practice while continuing his recovery from the oblique tear that kept him out of last week's Thanksgiving Day loss to the 49ers. With Seattle facing a quick turnaround again in Week 13 with another Thursday game, and with Walker still not practicing, he's beginning to look like a long shot to play in Dallas, though head coach Pete Carroll hasn't yet ruled him out. Wednesday's practice will represent Walker's last chance to get some reps in before being tagged with an injury designation. If Walker can't go, rookie Zach Charbonnet will once again lead Seattle's backfield versus Dallas.
Walker was expected to miss some time due to the oblique strain that he suffered Sunday versus the Rams, and he's now one step closer to sitting out his first game of the season. His status will be confirmed when Seattle releases its inactive list approximately 90 minutes before Thursday's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff. In Walker's expected absence against San Francisco, the Seahawks will likely turn their backfield over to rookie second-round pick Zach Charbonnet, with DeeJay Dallas and Kenny McIntosh in reserve. Walker's next chance for game action will come in another Thursday game Nov. 30 at Dallas.
Walker ran into a number of issues in the loss, most notably a game script that didn't allow Seattle to rely on the run game. Along similar lines, Seattle ran only 47 plays while possessing the ball for just under 20 minutes. Finally, Baltimore is among the best defenses in the league, all of which combined for Walker's worst game of the season and his second consecutive matchup with under 10 rushing attempts.
Walker battled a calf injury coming out of a Week 7 matchup against the Cardinals and was unable to practice Wednesday or Thursday. While he entered Sunday's game without an injury designation, it's possible the issue nagged him as he was held to a season-low in carries. Though it was a disappointing result, Walker was in a particularly tough matchup and still has at least 60 rushing yards in six of his seven games this season.
