Goes to Washington
Walker signed a contract with the Commanders on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Walker suited up eight times for the Steelers in 2023, recording 33 tackles (21 solo) and two passes defended, including one interception. It was a reduced role from his 2022 campaign with the Falcons, which saw him cross the century mark in tackles. He'll likely be a depth option in Washington's linebacker corps this season.

2022 Fantasy Outlook
Walker hasn't missed a game since being drafted by the Falcons in the fourth round of the 2020 Draft and has totaled 80 tackles, five pass deflections, one interception, one forced fumble and one defensive touchdown during that stretch. With Foye Oluokun gone and Deion Jones' (shoulder) future uncertain, Walker could garner an increased role in 2022. However, Walker saw more snaps (385) on defense as a rookie than he did last year (186), so rookie second-round pick Troy Anderson is likely the favorite to open the 2022 campaign as the starting middle linebacker next to Rashaan Evans.
