Walton carried the ball 11 times for 35 yards and fumbled once during Monday's 27-14 loss to the Steelers. He also caught three of six targets for 19 yards.
Meanwhile, Kalen Ballage logged three carries for eight yards and caught one pass for 11 yards. Following the trade of Kenyan Drake to the Cardinals, Walton profiles as the No. 1 option in Miami's backfield. However, game flow didn't work out in the second-year pro's favor versus Pittsburgh, as the Dolphins spent the second half of the contest playing catch-up. That's a pattern that could continue to play out for Walton (and the winless Miami offense) this season, but he at least has a solid matchup against the Jets' porous defense coming up in Week 9.
