2020 Receiving Projections
2020 Fantasy Outlook
Back-to-back injury-plagued campaigns limited Walker to just eight of the the Titans' last 32 regular-season games. Last season, the 35-year-old logged 21 catches for 215 yards and two touchdowns across seven appearances before landing on IR in November. Now bouncing back from December ankle surgery, the veteran tight end who was released by Tennessee remains unsigned, but he could catch on elsewhere once NFL teams retake the field. Whether he reenters the fantasy radar depends on his team context, but when healthy Walker is an effective pass catcher. Read Past Outlooks

Drawing interest from teams
Walker (ankle) is training for the upcoming season and has received interest from several teams, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Fowler specifically mentions the Patriots, who already appeared shaky at tight end before Matt LaCosse opted out of the 2020 campaign. Walker will turn 36 in August after suffering major injuries to his right ankle both of the past two years, but he could be a fit for a specialized role on passing downs. He reached the 800-yard mark in four straight seasons from 2014 to 2017, earning three Pro-Bowl nods during that stretch. Walker should be healthy at this point, considering he had surgery back in mid-December.

Chris Liss looks at the Fanball/NFFC Best Ball data from 2018-2019. Unsurprisingly, Christian McCaffrey was the biggest impact player both years.

Kerryon Johnson, damaged during turbulence, clocks in at No. 85, six spots below failed professional wrestler Rob Gronkowski.

After signing Derrick Henry to an extension, the Titans offense will continue to run through the team's power back.

It's remarkable that the Niners never unlocked Walker during his seven years there, because he instantly became a fantasy staple when the Titans signed him for his age-29 season. Walker busted out with a TE11 showing that year, then followed it up with four dandies (TE8, TE5, TE5, TE7). Good health was generally part of the story, as he missed just eight games from 2007 to 2017. The medical file got messy in 2018, as Walker broke his ankle on opening day and never played again. Spring rehab reports have been tempered in tone, which is to be expected with someone entering his age-35 season. Given the severity of the injury and Walker's mileage, he may be limited in training camp even after he avoided the PUP list. That said, the Tennessee wideout group is ordinary even after some offseason upgrades, and at least Walker's 2018 injury happened in the first week of the year - he'll have time to get right before the new season begins.

No desire to retire
Walker (ankle) has no interest in retiring at the end of the season, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. "This is not the end for me," Walker said Tuesday. "This is a setback. And if anyone knows the type of injury I had, it ain't easy to come back and play at a high level like I do. I just want to get it fixed and be ready for next year. I still have a year on my contract, and I am a Titan. So as long as the team, the organization, wants me here and believes in me, I am always going to be a Titan."
