Active but doesn't play in loss
Walker was active but did not play in Saturday's 45-14 wild-card playoff loss to the Texans.
ANALYSIS
Walker had a brief run as the Browns' primary quarterback earlier this season but was relieved of those duties after throwing five interceptions (one touchdown) in three starts. He served as the primary backup to Dorian Thompson-Robinson (hip) until the team resurrected Joe Flacco for the final stretch of the season. He enters the offseason as an unrestricted free agent.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Passed over for Week 13 start
Walker will serve as the No. 2 quarterback behind veteran Joe Flacco for Sunday's Week 13 game against the Rams with Dorian Thompson-Robinson sidelined due to his concussion, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Walker saw extended action in Weeks 6-8 and completed only 49.5 percent of his passes while posting a 1:5 TD:INT. With the much more accomplished Flacco available after signing with the Browns in the latter portion of November -- and Cleveland still in the mix for a playoff spot -- Walker is unsurprisingly being passed over for a game that will be critical to the team's shaky postseason prospects.

Walker spent the offseason and training camp with the Bears but was waived and joined Cleveland's practice squad in August.

He's completed 131 of 228 career pass attempts (57.5 percent) for 1,461 passing yards, five touchdowns and 11 interceptions while carrying 18 times for 50 yards.
