Kenneth Walker III (oblique) will play for the Seattle Seahawks against the Detroit Lions in Week 4 Monday night according to Adam Schefter.
Fantasy Impact
Walker III was able to log a limited practice session Friday for head coach Mike Macdonald and will now return to the backfield Monday night against a stingy Detroit rushing defense. Zach Charbonnet will likely return to a backup role behind Walker III.

Kenneth Walker III (oblique) was a limited participant at Thursday’s practice.
Fantasy Impact
Walker was a limited participant in Seattle’s first practice of the week on Thursday. He has been out for multiple weeks because of his oblique injury, but it appears that he may finally be nearing his return. If that’s the case, that will mean a lot less work for Zach Charbonnet moving forward.

It remains to be seen whether or not that will be the case, but it’s good to hear that the team expects him to be back sooner rather than later.

What the Experts Are Saying
Trending towards Week 4 return without limitations.
– Dr. Deepak Chona, MD
We’ll see if Kenneth Walker returns to the lineup this week. It’s likely 50/50 since Walker didn’t practice last week until he logged a limited session on Friday. I’ll update his outlook on Friday after we have some practice reports to digest.
