Fifth-year option declined by team
Walker had his fifth-year option declined by the Packers on Thursday, though the team still wants to work out an extension, Rob Demovsky of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The 2022 first-round pick has recorded 121 (75 solo), 118 (59 solo) and 102 (72 solo) tackles across his three pro regular seasons, respectively, leading Green Bay in the category each year. Walker did miss seven combined games due to injuries the last two seasons, including three with an ankle issue and one with a concussion in 2024. Despite those injuries, Packers GM Brian Gutekunst called Walker "really impactful," "a great leader" and a player the team "would love to have" around "for longer than just a couple years," per Demovsky.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
Two seasons into his career, Walker has proven himself to be a strong tackler and run-stopper. He's also missed time in each campaign, as he was ejected from a pair of games in his rookie season before battling a shoulder injury that sidelined him for three games in 2024. With those growing pains out of the way, it should line up for year three to be Walker's true breakout. However, the addition of Edgerin Cooper in the third round of the 2024 NFL Draft muddies Walker's playing time projection. The coaching staff has called the duo "interchangeable," though it's not time to panic just yet considering Cooper hasn't played a down as a pro.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Fifth-year option declined
The Packers have opted not to exercise Walker's fifth-year option, but the team is still interested in retaining him for the long term, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Walker was the 22nd overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft and has recorded over 100 total tackles in each of his first three regular seasons, despite missing seven contests over that span. Walker has also contributed 6.5 sacks, 12 defensed passes, including a pick-six, three forced fumbles and one fumble recovery, but his fifth-year option would have been a hefty $14.751 million, leading Green Bay to try and take the contract-extension route instead.
