Walker the 3rd can’t stay healthy. He is a superb RB, but he needs to go away; he’s just not reliable.

K9 not practicing is a concern, for sure. Let him play out his contract, though. He's pretty solid when on the field.

Some of you guys have short memories. So you think that K9 is injured a lot? Have you forgotten about Rashaad Penny?

Penny, Rawls, Carson, Procise and Walker all very injury prone.
We need bigger and more stout backs like Lynch.

So you think Penny was injured a lot? Have you forgotten about CJ Prosise?

 

[Rat]

If Walker is hobbled at all, he shouldnt be out there anyway, given the result of the game isn't all that important and we'd just be looking to gain intangible things that may or may not even matter in more critical games. Sit him tomorrow so he has another week and a half to get healthy for a potential winner-take-all game in week 18. If the Rams beat the Cards this week, then just shut him down and have Kenny McIntosh taking handoffs from Sam Howell in the season finale.

 

[James in PA]

Rashaad Walker.

Good point! Yes, I had forgotten about him.

The running back position is the most susceptible to injury than any other position on the field. Even Beast had to deal with injuries.

And I'm not sure if there's a relationship between size and injuries. it would make an interesting study.
