Throughout his six-year NFL career with the Lions (2018-23), he has appeared in 79 games (43 starts) and registered 375 tackles, 23 passes defensed, 4.0 sacks, three interceptions and two forced fumbles. In 2023, Walker appeared in a career-high 17 games (six starts) and totaled 57 tackles, two passes defensed, 1.0 sack, and one forced fumble.
A 29-year-old native of Brunswick, GA, Walker attended Louisiana-Lafayette University (2013-17), where he appeared in 50 games (42 starts) and recorded 275 tackles, 26 passes defensed, eight interceptions, two forced fumbles, one fumble recovery, and 0.5 sack.
