Seahawks’ Kenneth Walker injury update from Mike Macdonald | Tacoma News Tribune

Tacoma, WASports

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III is currently undergoing medical tests to evaluate a calf injury that has sidelined him for several games this season. Coach Mike Macdonald confirmed that the injury is specifically related to Walker's calf, despite earlier reports mentioning ankle issues. As the Seahawks prepare for a crucial matchup against the Green Bay Packers, Walker's uncertain return places additional pressure on the team's offensive strategy. Rookie Zach Charbonnet has emerged as a vital player in Walker's absence, showcasing his potential with a career-high performance against the Arizona Cardinals, where he rushed for 134 yards and scored two touchdowns. Charbonnet's success highlights the Seahawks' roster depth and the effectiveness of offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb's game plan, which has helped the team maintain its narrow lead in the NFC West.

The Seahawks will need strong performances to secure their playoff aspirations as they navigate the final stretch of the season.
