Seahawks' Kenneth Walker: Not playing Week 2

Walker (oblique) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

Walker was unable to practice in any fashion Wednesday through Friday due to the oblique injury, which prompted the Seahawks to list him as doubtful heading into game day. With Walker now officially ruled out, Zach Charbonnet is expected to move into a leading role out of the backfield, leaving Kenny McIntosh and practice-squad call-up George Holani to fill depth roles behind him. Walker will turn his focus to shaking off the oblique injury with the hope of returning to action next Sunday versus Miami.
