Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.
Seahawks RBs Ken Walker (calf) and Zach Charbonnet (oblique) are off the final Week 16 injury report. Both guys put in full practices on Friday. Walker should return to his role as lead back, but there’s some chance that Charbonnet earned more work with his play over the last two weeks. It’s also a tough matchup against the Vikings’ third-ranked RB defense. It has Walker sitting a bit lower than usual in the Week 16 RB Rankings.

The ankle is off the injury report, but HC Mike Macdonald said earlier this week that the calf was the concern for Walker's Week 15 status.

But right now, there’s positive signs. So, we’ll just say day-to-day, I think is fair. But it’s not long-term." We'll see if Walker is able to practice tomorrow, but fantasy owners should start lining up alternatives for the week. Zach Charbonnet will be a top-15 RB play if Walker sits again.
