Walton (knee) did not play a single snap before being placed on injured reserve in Week 11 this season.
EDGE Analysis
Walton is a restricted free agent who has played in only 30 games since being drafted by the Steelers in 2015. The anticipated return of Stephon Tuitt in 2020 does not bode well for Walton, and his future with Pittsburgh remains to be seen.

Walton (knee) was placed on injured reserve by the Steelers on Tuesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
The move comes shortly after it was announced that Walton needs a procedure on his meniscus. The 27-year-old did not appear in a game this season and now his year is over.

Walton will have surgery to repair his meniscus, essentially ruling him out for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Mike Tomlin didn't reveal much in terms of details, but Walton will surely miss a week or two. His absence shouldn't shake up the Steelers' defensive dynamic since the 27-year-old hasn't been active for a game since re-signing with the team Oct. 15.

Walton signed a contract with the Steelers on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Walton had been without a team since being released by the Bills on Aug. 31. The 27-year-old will provide depth to Pittsburgh's defensive front after defensive end Stephon Tuitt sustained a season-ending pectoral injury.

Walton agreed to a deal with the Bills on Wednesday, Sal Capaccio of WGR Sports Radio 550 Buffalo reports.
EDGE Analysis
Walton spent the past four seasons in Pittsburgh, making 36 tackles and two sacks in 36 games for the Steelers. After the team neglected to re-sign him this offseason, he was able to latch on with Buffalo, where Walton will hope to provide depth to the team's defensive front.

Walton was inactive for Pittsburgh's 16-13 win over Cincinnati in Week 17.
EDGE Analysis
Playing in just four game this season Walton finished with two tackles. This was a disappointing effort for the fourth-year defensive end after playing in all 16 games in 2017. It remains to be seen where this unrestricted free agent is playing next season.

Walton, who recorded one tackle (solo) in the regular season finale win over the Browns, finishes up the 2017 season with 12 tackles (nine solo), including two sacks while playing in all 16 games.
EDGE Analysis
The second-year defensive end did not see much playing time this season, splitting snaps on defense and special teams. With Cameron Heyward, Stephon Tuitt and Tyson Alualu ahead of him on the depth chart, Walton is limited in the fantasy impact he can make, although he should return to play for Pittsburgh in 2018.

Walton had three tackles (all solo) in the Steelers' 27-24 overtime win on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The ankle injury that forced Ricardo Mathews from the game resulted in increased defensive snaps for Walton, allowing him to have a personal-best three tackles against Cleveland. He finished with eight tackles (six solo) in 10 games this season.

Walton was a healthy inactive in Week 1.
EDGE Analysis
Walton played in just six games as a rookie despite being on the active roster. He's one of the team's last options at defensive line and isn't likely to see much of any time this season.

Walton is inactive Sunday against the 49ers.
EDGE Analysis
Walton is the second-string right defensive end, but was not needed on the game day roster.
