2024 Fantasy Outlook
During his first year with the Bears, Walker posted just 3.5 sacks. The pass rusher was coming off a breakout season with Tennessee in 2022 with 7.0 sacks. However, last year after the Week 13 bye, Walker recorded a partial sack in all but one game. That success likely had to do with Montez Sweat becoming a focal point of opposing offenses. It's possible Walker carries his late-season success into 2024. Read Past Outlooks
Up to 3.5 sacks this season
Walker tallied five tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks and an additional QB hit, in the Bears' 30-27 overtime loss to the Vikings on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Although this was the second consecutive game in which Walker recorded a sack, this was the first time since Week 8 the veteran posted more than three tackles. Unless Walker can post improved tackle totals with some consistency, he'll remain a sack-dependent IDP.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2017
Walker was a second-round draft pick of the Broncos in 2017 and played four seasons with them. Now that the Bears signed him in free agency, Walker is with his fourth team in the last four years. However, after failing to reach five sacks in any of his first five seasons, the 28 year old notched a career-high seven sacks with the Titans last year. The Bears expect him to start at defensive end, playing opposite Yannick Ngakoue in the hopes of boosting what was an anemic pass rush in 2022.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Talks with Texans
Walker had a visit with the Texans on Thursday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
The Texans are in serious need of a bolstered pass rush, and though Walker hasn't necessarily been a sack machine across four seasons in the league, he did bring down opposing quarterbacks 8.5 total times over the last two years. Walker has yet to prove himself as a reliable IDP fantasy asset, but landing in Houston would at least give him a clear path to consistent opportunities.
