Frank

Walker

He’s been out since the beginning of the month with a broken foot. Walker’s return will get undrafted rookie Curtis DeLoach out of the lineup.

Giants spokesman Avis Roper did not know how long Walker would be sidelined.

We suspect that this source is Walker’s agent, who is doing his job by creating a market for his client. Walker is a dime back that would also help on special teams.

The nine-year veteran was a final cut with the Titans last week. With Orlando Scandrick (ankle), Mike Jenkins (shoulder, knee), and Terence Newman (groin) all battling injuries, Walker could see action against the 49ers this week. He’s a former teammate of coach Jason Garrett.

Walker reportedly bought the car from a man who owed a gambling debt to a childhood friend of Walker’s. Good times.

Walker suffered torn cartilage in his knee while covering a punt in Week 6 and the Packers are now thin at cornerback with Will Blackmon also out for the season.

He’s the favorite to be Green Bay’s primary nickel back, though Frank Walker is in the mix. Blackmon, a fourth-round pick in 2006, has been getting the majority of first-team minicamp reps while Charles Woodson has been out.
