2023 Fantasy Outlook
Walker, who suffered a quadriceps injury that limited him to three games in 2022, returns to lead the Browns' defense as its signal caller. Prior to the injury, he'd been a durable presence in the middle of defenses, either with the Colts or Browns. Cleveland added nothing to its linebacking crew via free agency or the draft, opting to stick with a group that had four members finish 2022 on injured reserve. If healthy, Walker should hit triple-digit tackles. Read Past Outlooks

Still rehabbing
Walker (quadriceps) was rehabbing on the side field to start mandatory minicamp, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
ANALYSIS
Walker suffered a season-ending quadriceps tear in Week 3 last year and continues to work his way back to full strength. The veteran linebacker re-signed with Cleveland this offseason on a one-year deal, and when healthy, he'll presumably reclaim his starting spot. There hasn't been any indication Walker is in danger of missing the start of the 2023 campaign.

The Browns needed to get better at linebacker entering 2021, and Walker gave them exactly what was needed. After being a leader on the Colts' defense for the previous four seasons, Walker became Cleveland's defensive signal caller and led the team with 113 tackles while averaging a career-best 8.7 tackles per game. Re-signing him to a one-year deal was a no brainer.
