2025 Fantasy Outlook
Walker will forever be compared to Aidan Hutchinson thanks to their relative draft positions in 2022, and that is very unlikely to be a positive thing for him. However, Walker has shown progress every season as a pro. His improvement in 2024 came primarily as a run defender and resulted in him logging a career-best 60 tackles and 13 tackles for loss. Combined with back-to-back double-digit sack seasons, Walker is slowly emerging as a well-rounded contributor for both the Jaguars and fantasy managers. Even if he plateaus a bit in 2025, Walker has established himself as a strong fantasy producer along the defensive line. He should also maintain a key role this season after having his fifth-year option picked up, a clear signal that the new coaching staff and management regime in Jacksonville are still prioritizing Walker's role with the team.

Now viewed day-to-day after surgery

Wrist
October 2, 2025
Jaguars head coach Liam Coen said Walker is considered day-to-day after undergoing surgery on his wrist and still has a chance of playing Monday versus the Chiefs, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Though a source familiar with the wrist injury Walker sustained in the Week 4 win over the 49ers told Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com on Wednesday that the defensive end was viewed as "week-to-week," Coen offered a more encouraging prognosis a day later. Following Walker's surgery, the Jaguars will likely wait and see what, if anything, he's able to do in practices Thursday through Saturday before deciding on his status for Monday's contest. Even if Walker is cleared to play Monday, he could have to wear some sort of brace or cast to protect his surgically-repaired wrist.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
The 2022 first overall pick had a quiet rookie campaign with just 2.5 sacks, but he took a leap forward as a sophomore NFLer last season with 10 sacks in 17 games. Walker and Josh Allen were one of the best sack duos in the league with 27.5 combined, and Allen's five-year, $150 million contract has ensured the pairing will continue for the foreseeable future. Walker still has just one forced fumble in his 32 NFL games, and turning into a more complete playmaker is the next step in his development.
It was a quiet rookie campaign for the first overall pick of the 2022 NFL Draft, as he finished with 49 tackles (24 solo), 3.5 sacks, one interception and one forced fumble in 15 games. He's unlikely to jump into IDP relevance in 2023, but the Georgia product should see significant playing time early on in hopes of a significant jump during his second season as a pro.
The first overall pick of the 2022 NFL Draft, Walker should immediately step into a major role on Jacksonville's defensive front. The 21-year-old didn't start a game at Georgia until his junior season in 2021, but he still finished with 9.5 sacks and 13.5 tackles for loss over 36 games in his collegiate career. Walker should see plenty of opportunities from Week 1 given his raw athleticism, though it could take some time for him to be an IDP factor as he develops.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could play despite surgery
DEJacksonville Jaguars
October 2, 2025
Walker, who underwent left wrist surgery Monday, could still play in Monday night's Week 5 matchup against the Chiefs, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Head coach Liam Coen said Thursday that Walker will be considered day-to-day, as the Jaguars began official Week 5 prep. The 2022 first overall pick suffered his injury in the second quarter of the Week 4 win over the 49ers, and despite his early exit in that contest, he's still second on Jacksonville with 2.0 sacks and has also compiled 12 total tackles along with a pass breakup.
