When scrambling, he's got great accuracy throwing to receivers in motion. And his anticipation skills are smooth and in rhythm. He's also poised on rollout pass plays.

Walker is also skilled at finding the holes in coverage and sitting down. He's very physical and has elite quickness moving laterally. On defense, he displays good hips intercepting passes along the sideline from free safety.
