    Analysis: Walker departed the contest in the first half with a hamstring injury and has since been ruled out.

  • Has solid effort

    Walker recorded nine tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 28-3 loss to the Ravens.

    Analysis: Walker's nine tackles were a season-high, as were his 40 defensive snaps played. The veteran linebacker has had a slow start in the tackle department, recording just 10 combined tackles in the team's first three games. His performance against Baltimore may be a sign that the 28-year-old is returning to his old self after dealing with a long recovery from a torn quadriceps injury that ended his 2022 season prematurely. He'll work to keep the momentum rolling through the team's Week 5 bye and…read more

  • Avoids PUP list

    Walker (quadriceps) is on a one-day-on, one-day-off practice schedule, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Walker's ability to practice suggests he has made strides in his recovery from a torn quadriceps that sidelined him from Week 3 onward in 2022. He's able to practice after avoiding being placed on the active/PUP list to open training camp.

    Published: Wed, Jul 26 at 1:40pm by Rotowire.com

  • Doing individual drills

    Walker (quadriceps) is starting training camp by participating in individual drills, Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com reports.

    Analysis: Walker's 2022 season came to an abrupt halt after tearing his quadriceps tendon in Week 3. He has registered 126 tackles and one sack in the last two seasons with Cleveland and is expected to reclaim his starting spot at middle linebacker once healthy.

    Published: Sun, Jul 23 at 8:57am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Still rehabbing

    Walker (quadriceps) was rehabbing on the side field to start mandatory minicamp, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Walker suffered a season-ending quadriceps tear in Week 3 last year and continues to work his way back to full strength. The veteran linebacker re-signed with Cleveland this offseason on a one-year deal, and when healthy, he'll presumably reclaim his starting spot. There hasn't been any indication Walker is in danger of missing the start of the 2023 campaign.

  • Stays with Cleveland

    Walker (quadriceps) agreed Wednesday with the Browns on a one-year deal, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Walker appeared in only three games for the Browns last season before suffering a torn quad and being shut down after requiring surgery. The veteran linebacker should be able to return to full health ahead of the upcoming season and will likely be in line to serve as the Browns' starting middle linebacker.

  • Lands on IR

    The Browns have placed Walker (quadriceps) on injured reserve, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

    Analysis: No surprise here, as Walker suffered a torn quadriceps and will require five to seven months to recover. As a result of his absence for the rest of the year, Jacob Phillips is expected to replace him at middle linebacker.

    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Needs season-ending surgery

    Walker's MRI on Friday revealed a torn quadriceps tendon, which will require season-ending surgery to repair, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: The recovery timetable for such an injury is 5-to-7 months, so Walker should be recovered soon after the conclusion of the playoffs. With Walker sidelined for the rest of the 2022 campaign, Jacob Phillips is expected to slide into the starting middle linebacker spot for the Browns.

  • Set for MRI

    Browns coach Kevin Stefanski said Thursday that Walker will undergo an MRI on his sprained left knee, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Walker was carted off with an air cast on his left leg after he suffered a knee sprain in Thursday's 29-17 win against Pittsburgh. While these MRI results will reveal more about the exact severity of this injury, it's possible the middle linebacker will be sidelined for an extended period of time. Walker recorded 113 tackles over 13 regular-season games for Cleveland last year, so his potential absence would be a major hit for the team's defense moving forward.

  • Carted off Thursday

    Walker (knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of Thursday's game against the Steelers, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Analysis: Walker left Thursday's contest early as he got taken off the field on a cart wearing an air cast. The severity of the linebacker's knee injury is uncertain at this point. Expect Jacob Phillips to fill in at middle linebacker for the remainder of the Thursday night matchup.

  • Clears NFI list

    Walker (groin) was activated off the non-football injury list Saturday, Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com reports.

    Analysis: Walker sustained a groin injury during the first week of camp, but the issue doesn't seem much of a concern anymore. The sixth-year pro recorded 113 tackles across 13 games in his first season with Cleveland, and he appears like he'll maintain starting inside linebacker duties once again. Expect Walker to jump back in the mix sometime next week to resume practicing now that his groin injury seems like a thing of the past.

  • Goes onto NFI list

    Cleveland placed Walker (groin) on the active/non-football injury list Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

    Analysis: The exact nature of Walker's injury is unclear, and there's no concrete timetable for his return at this point. If he's ready to go again by the start of the regular season, though, he could push for low-end IDP production after notching 113 tackles in 2021.

  • Re-ups on one-year deal

    Walker agreed to a one-year, $5 million contract with the Browns on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Walker led Cleveland with 113 combined tackles last season, and the All-Pro middle linebacker is now set to run it back with the team for the 2022 campaign. For fantasy purposes, it's positive to see Walker back in familiar circumstances, as he should be set to maintain a similarly productive role.

  • Leads team in tackles

    Walker recorded seven tackles in Week 18's 21-16 win over the Bengals.

    Analysis: Walker finished a strong first season in Cleveland and led the team with 113 combined tackles, including three double-digit efforts, over 13 games. His 8.7 tackles per game were the best of his five-year career. The Browns got everything they paid for when they signed the All-Pro middle linebacker to a one-year deal last March. The 26-year-old added one sack, giving him 4.5 during his career. Walker is not under contract for 2022, but it makes sense for the Browns to bring him back.

  • Rejoins active roster

    Walker (undisclosed) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday.

    Analysis: Walker missed Week 14 against the Ravens while in the health and safety protocols, but he's now back on the active roster. He'll have a couple days to get up to speed since Saturday's game against the Raiders was postponed to Monday.

  • Won't play in Week 14

    Walker (undisclosed) won't play Sunday against the Ravens, per coach Kevin Stefanski, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: It remains unclear whether or not Walker has actually tested positive for COVID-19, but he's on the reserve/COVID-19 list either way and won't come off in time to suit up against Baltimore. Elijah Lee will likely start at middle linebacker in Walker's place, while Walker will look to gain clearance in time to face the Raiders in Week 15.

  • Moves to COVID list

    Walker (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.

    Analysis: It's unclear whether Walker tested positive for the virus or if he's considered a close contact, but he'll be unavailable until he clears the health and safety protocols regardless. Elijah Lee figures to be more involved in the linebacking corps while Walker is out.

    Walker netted eight tackles (two solo) and a pass defensed in a 15-10 loss to the Steelers on Sunday.

    Analysis: Walker played 100 percent of the snaps for the second week in a row. Although he missed three weeks with a hamstring injury, his eight tackles were his second lowest of the season in five games. Those eight tackles brings his season total to 43 with 25 of them solo. His pass defensed was his second of the season.

  • Activated from IR

    Walker (hamstring) was activated from injured reserve Saturday, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Walker missed three games due to a hamstring injury but participated in practice this week and will return to the field for Sunday's game against the Chargers. The 26-year-old recorded 10 tackles (eight solo) in the season opener, and he should start in Week 5.

  • Designated to return from IR

    Walker (hamstring) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday.

    Analysis: Walker suffered a hamstring injury during practice leading up to Week 2 and was subsequently placed on injured reserve. The 26-year-old spent the minimum three weeks on IR and will now have a 21-day period to be added to the active roster. If he isn't added, he will revert back to IR for the remainder of the season. Walker will likely command the starting middle linebacker spot when he makes his return.

  • Lands on IR

    The Browns placed Walker (hamstring) on injured reserve Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Walker suffered a hamstring injury during practice leading up to Week 2 and will be forced to miss at least three weeks after being placed on IR. The 26-year-old recorded nine tackles (eight solo) during Week 1 and will be hard to replace for the upcoming weeks. Malcolm Smith is the obvious candidate on the current roster to replace Walker, but Cleveland has also looked outside the organization as they worked out Reuben Foster on Friday, per Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston.

  • Could be out for weeks

    Walker has suffered a hamstring injury that could sideline him for a few weeks, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.

    Analysis: Walker's a key piece of the Browns' defense, as evidenced by his nine-tackle performance in Week 1. If Walker's sidelined Sunday against Houston or beyond, Malcolm Smith should bump up into a starting role. Cleveland's expected to look outside the organization to bolster its middle-linebacker depth during Walker's absence, and the team already has a workout scheduled with free agent Reuben Foster, per Wilson.

  • Registers nine tackles

    Walker posted nine tackles (eight solo) in Sunday's 33-29 loss to the Chiefs.

    Analysis: After signing a one-year, $3.5 million contract in March, Walker won the starting middle linebacker job and led the Browns in tackles during the season opener. Walker compiled 321 tackles and 11 pass breakups over the last three seasons with the Colts. He figures to be a steady IDP contributor as long as he maintains the starting gig.

  • Returns to practice

    Walker (knee) was back at practice Tuesday, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Analysis: Walker's return from a knee injury sustained Aug. 2 was the good news defensively, but the Browns had their share of bad news on that side of the ball. Myles Garrett was held out due to a hamstring injury and Denzel Ward missed a third straight practice with an undisclosed injury, though he did wear a long sleeve on his right leg. Walker, who participated in individual drills but not team sessions, is expected to start at middle linebacker and will wear the green dot on his helmet as the…read more

  • Won't need surgery

    Coach Kevin Stefanski said Walker (knee) will be sidelined "a week plus" but won't require surgery, Andrew Gribble of the Browns' official site reports.

    Analysis: Walker could potentially return to practice by the end of training camp. It's good to see the soon-to-be 26-year-old has avoided a worst-case scenario, though it is unfortunate that he'll need to miss a significant amount of practice, at the very least. If Walker can't earn more than a rotational role in Cleveland's linebacker corps, it will be difficult for him to achieve fantasy relevancy.

  • Injures knee in practice

    Walker injured his right knee during Monday's practice, Marla Ridenour of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Walker's injury appeared to be a cramp, per Ridenour, and he was unable to finish practice after limping off the field. He'll be considered day-to-day until further notice.

  • Links up with Browns

    Walker is signing a one-year, $3.5 million contract with the Browns, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: The 25-year-old will provide some much-needed depth for Cleveland's run defense. If Walker plays a rotational role with the Browns similar to that which he did in Indianapolis, he won't have much fantasy value in IDP formats except as a bye week fill-in.

  • Ready for Week 12

    Walker (ribs) is active for Sunday's game against the Titans, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports.

    Analysis: Walker received the questionable tag despite practicing as a full participant all week, so his availability never truly appeared in doubt. The 25-year-old has 15 total tackles in four games since Indianapolis' bye in Week 7.

  • Clear for Week 5

    Walker (ankle) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Browns.

    Analysis: The 25-year-old linebacker hasn't yet missed a start in 2020, but a sudden appearance on the injury report this week put his status in question for Sunday's matchup against the Browns. Walker was able to improve from nonparticipation to partial practice participation between Thursday and Friday, and he has since been cleared by the Colts' medical staff. Walker sits just two tackles behind Darius Leonard (groin) for the team lead heading into Week 5.

  • Status in question for Sunday

    Walker (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Browns, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

    Analysis: Walker picked up this ankle injury at some point during the practice week, as he was a non-participant Thursday but elevated to limited participation Friday. The 25-year-old is slated to start at middle linebacker if he's able to suit up. If he's sidelined, however, expect Zaire Franklin to fill in.

    Analysis: The 25-year-old linebacker popped up on the injury report this week, though further information on the issue is not expected to come until Friday when coach Frank Reich next speaks to reporters. Walker just racked up a season-high 11 tackles in a win against the Bears, providing him with an updated average of 7.3 tackles per game since the beginning of his breakout 2018 campaign.

  • Seven tackles in season opener
