Interim head coach Steve Wilks said Friday that he expects Walker to start Week 11 against Baltimore, but the staff will continue to evaluate the quarterback position ahead of the game, Augusta Stone of the Panthers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Walker completed 10 of 16 passes for 108 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions in a 25-15 win over Atlanta on Thursday, getting some assistance from a trio of dropped picks. He was benched at halftime for Baker Mayfield the week before in a blowout loss to Cincinnati, and he somehow has accounted for only 671 passing yards, 39 rushing yards and three touchdowns through five starts while leading the Panthers to a 2-3 record. If Walker does indeed get another start, he'll be at or near the bottom of most Week 11 quarterback fantasy rankings.
