Walker recorded 12 total tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's 24-14 loss to the Lions. The 2022 first-round pick from Georgia played well in his first game back from a concussion, leading the Packers' defense total tackles. Despite missing Week 8's win over the Jaguars, Walker still ranks first on Green Bay's defense in total tackles with 64 across eight appearances this season. He's expected to remain a viable IDP option after the Packers' Week 10 bye.

Walker recorded 12 total tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's 24-14 loss to the Lions. The 2022 first-round pick from Georgia played well in his first game back from a concussion, leading the Packers' defense total tackles. Despite missing Week 8's win over the Jaguars, Walker still ranks first on Green Bay's defense in total tackles with 64 across eight appearances this season. He's expected to remain a viable IDP option after the Packers' Week 10 bye.
Head coach Matt LaFleur told reporters Wednesday that Walker has cleared the NFL's five-step concussion protocol, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports. Walker missed the Packers' Week 8 win over the Jaguars after sustaining a concussion the week prior, but it now appears he's moved past the issue. The 2022 first-round pick from Georgia has tallied 52 total tackles, including 1.5 sacks, through seven appearances this season. He's expected to start alongside Edgerrin Cooper as one of Green Bay's top inside linebackers in Week 9, when the Packers host the Lions.
Walker (concussion) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports. Walker was able to log consecutive limited practices to end the week, but the 2022 first-round pick hasn't progressed through the league's concussion protocols enough to be cleared for Sunday's contest. Eric Wilson should see increased work with the Packers' first-team defense with Walker sidelined.
Walker (concussion) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Jaguars, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports. Walker was able to practice in a limited fashion both Thursday and Friday; however, he must pass through the NFL's five-step concussion protocol in order to suit up Sunday. If Walker is unable to do so, expect Eric Wilson to see increased work with the Packers' first-team defense.
Walker (concussion) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice. Walker was able to upgrade from a DNP on Wednesday to a limited participant Thursday, but he still has more work to do as he progresses through the league's five-step concussion protocols. Even if he were to practice in full Friday, that doesn't guarantee that he'll be able to suit up against the Jaguars on Sunday.
Walker (concussion) was listed as a DNP on the Packers' injury report Wednesday. Walker was diagnosed with a concussion during the Packers' win over the Texans on Sunday. He'll have two more chances this week to return to practice, though he'll also need to pass the league's five-step protocols before being able to return to regular-season action.
Walker has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Texans due to a concussion. Walker was unable to pass the league's concussion protocols after getting hit in the head in the second quarter of Sunday's game. He will have to pass the five-step protocols in the upcoming week in order to play against the Jaguars on Oct. 27. With Walker out for the rest of the game, Ty'Ron Hopper will take snaps with the first-team defense at outside linebacker opposite Isaiah McDuffie.
Walker is being evaluated for a concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Houston. Walker took a shot to the head in the second quarter of Sunday's contest, and he'll have to clear the league's concussion protocols in order to return. Ty'Ron Hopper should see snaps at outside linebacker opposite Isaiah McDuffie for as long as Walker is sidelined.
Walker logged nine total tackles (six solo), including one tackle for loss, in Sunday's 24-19 win over the Rams. The third-year pro's nine total tackles ranked second on the Packers' defense in Week 5, trailing rookie Evan Williams' 10-stop effort. Walker continues to be a tackling machine for the Packers, as his 40 tackles lead Green Bay's defense through the team's first five games. Expect the Georgia product to remain a viable IDP option as the Packers take on the Cardinals in Week 6.
