Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie linebacker David Walker will miss the season with a torn ACL, multiple outlets reported on Monday.
The 2025 fourth-round draft pick out of Central Arkansas sustained the knee injury during Friday’s practice at training camp.
Walker, 25, was projected for a backup role this season behind starting outside linebackers Haason Reddick and Yaya Diaby.
Walker earned the Buck Buchanan Award last season as the best defensive player in the Football Championship Subdivision. The three-time All-American led the FCS with 23 tackles for loss and tallied 10.5 sacks in 12 games in 2024.
