Overview

  • Head coach Liam Coen said Walker had a surgical procedure after seeing a specialist and is listed as day-to-day with a chance to play Monday night against Kansas City.
  • If he is cleared, Walker could wear a wrist brace and operate on a snap count to limit stress on the injury.
  • Walker hurt the wrist in the first half of the Week 4 win at San Francisco, exited after 12 defensive snaps, and left Levi's Stadium in a sling.
  • Contingency plans point to Emmanuel Ogbah and Dawuane Smoot taking on larger roles opposite Josh Hines-Allen, with BJ Green or Danny Striggow available for depth.
  • The 2022 No. 1 pick started fast in 2025 with two sacks and 13 pressures per PFF and is under a 2026 fifth-year option worth $14.7 million, having previously returned quickly from a 2019 wrist surgery at Georgia.
