HERSCHEL WALKER'S 15-year-old son is a star.
Which isn't surprising until you find out that Christian Walker is a competitive cheerleader, not a running back.
Herschel, who played three seasons with the Eagles, said he was perplexed when Christian first told him about cheerleading.
"I thought, like, 'Cheering at a game?' And he says, 'No, no, no. Competitive cheer.' " Herschel told CBS. "And I'm like, 'What? Like what is that?'
"I didn't know what that was. Then he's, [like] 'Oh, no. People turning flips and all this stuff. Dance and all this.' And I came out to see it.
