Raiders signed RB Austin Walter, formerly of the Jets. 

2 years ago

Walter appeared in four games for the Jets last year. He rushed 26 times for 101 yards and a score but was waived in May. With Zamir White being held out of practice with an undisclosed injury, the Raiders likely needed an extra body to take reps at running back. Walter is unlikely to make the final roster unless someone ahead of him on the depth chart sustains a serious injury.

Jets waived RB Austin Walter. 

2 years ago

Walter came from the bottom of the team's depth chart to deliver some late-season fantasy production in 2021. He played in four games for the Jets last season and had 26 rushes for 101 yards and a touchdown as the team struggled with backfield injuries. Walter could land on another roster in the coming weeks.

Austin Walter rushed 14 times for 49 yards in New York's Week 17 loss to Tampa Bay.

The Jets actually did a pretty good job of running to the edge against the Vita Vea-led Bucs defense, and Walter gained 31 of his 49 yards outside of the tackles. If Michael Carter (concussion) and Tevin Coleman (COVID-19) aren't ready to play in Week 18, Walter may be the run-first part of a committee against the Bills. It's hard to see that as a great matchup for him.

Jets RB Austin Walter (illness) has been ruled out for the remainder of Week 14 against the Saints.

3 years ago

Walter was active for this game but didn't appear to be on the sidelines at the start of the game. He was ruled out without playing a snap. La'Mical Perine and Ty Johnson are the only active backs for the Jets now. Neither back holds much fantasy value given the dreadful state of the New York offense.
