Walker spent time with the Indianapolis Colts’ practice squad before joining the XFL, where he was widely regarded as the best player in the league.
He lead the Roughnecks to a 5-0 record with 15 touchdown passes before the season was cancelled due to the Coronavirus pandemic.
Panthers head coach Matt Rhule was also Walker’s coach at Temple.
