Daniel Jordan Walker (b. Sept. 28, 1998) is a three-star linebacker prospect from Wheaton High School North in Illinois who appears on film to have great closing speed in the backfield when rushing off the edge. I fully expect him to redshirt this season.
Walker selected K-State over offers from Illinois State, Nevada, North Dakota State, South Dakota State and Southern Illinois.
I really like his long-term potential, as does Ian Boyd at SportsTreatise:
Walker basically played their “Sam” or “edge weapon” position in high school and he was excellent in that role.
