BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3/Flex
ANALYSIS: The Seattle backfield is a nasty fantasy situation at the moment. After missing the Seahawks last two games with an oblique injury and working through this week with a questionable designation, it looks as though Kenneth Walker III will suit up against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 14 following a full practice session on Friday.
#Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III (oblique) and RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) both are listed as questionable but both were full participants on Friday. That's a sign both should play Sunday.

Walker's backfield mate, Zach Charbonnet, has handled the load in his absence, but has also been listed as questionable for this divisional clash with the Niners due to a knee injury. By all accounts, Charbonnet will be in action this week alongside Walker. It all adds up to a cloudy fantasy outlook for both backs in what's a brutal matchup against a trending Niners defense. The most likely scenario is that the two split the Seattle backfield work in Week 14, which limits the upside of both.
Fantasy managers in shallow leagues might even consider avoiding this situation altogether and sitting Walker for this one, but those in deeper formats can start him as a back-end RB3 or Flex option in this tough spot.
