Seahawks RB Rashaad Penny suffers broken fibula, out for season

NFL via Twitter

Oct 10, 2022 · 12:59 PM EDT

This was, sadly, the expected report, and Rashaad Penny is officially out for the season.

Related Players: Ken Walker, DeeJay Dallas

Fantasy Impact:

Once Penny was carted off, the running back workload was split up between Ken Walker (early downs) and DeeJay Dallas (third down role). Walker did run a season-high 13 routes on Sunday, but it's more likely that he would be eased into that role. Either way, the rookie becomes an immediate must-roster regardless of league size.

Seahawks RB Ken Walker enters weekend with no injury designation

Corbin K Smith via Twitter

Rookie Ken Walker will receive the first NFL snaps of his career on Sunday against the 49ers.

Related Players: Rashaad Penny

Fantasy Impact:

Rashaad Penny received almost all of the backfield usage in Week 1 with Walker sidelined but still finished as the RB36 with his 7.7 half-PPR points. Things are going to get murky quickly in Seattle, and it's going to be challenging to start either option with any sort of confidence in San Fransico in Week 2. Penny will be designated as more of a Flex play than an RB2 play, with the rookie set to share a piece of the pie.

Seahawks say RB Ken Walker (hernia) set to return Week 2

Pete Carroll says on radio show Seattle Sports that Ken Walker III will return this week. Says, "Kenny Walker is going to be out there this week for us to add to that.''

Related players: Rashaad Penny

Fantasy Impact:

The return of Walker will likely cut into Penny's workload at least to some extent in Week 2. Penny rushed 12 times for 60 yards in Week 1 and Travis Homer was the only other back to get a rushing attempt. Penny caught two balls for seven yards as well. Walker may not jump right into the fire in Week 2, but his workload should at least slowly start to build.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker (hernia) questionable for Monday

Seahawks RB Ken Walker is questionable for Monday night against the Broncos with a hernia.

Fantasy Impact:

Walker did not practice at all this week but Pete Carroll is still perhaps holding out some hope that Walker can suit up on Monday. Even if he does, he'll be extremely limited and behind Rashaad Penny in the pecking order. Your best bet is to keep Walker on the bench for now, especially being that the game is Monday.
