He’s one of the players to have worn the captain’s armband in Atlanta United’s history. That’s thanks in part to the role he played during the teams inaugural campaign under Tata Martino in 2017 where while on loan he won the right back spot and played in 20 games, making 17 starts that season. Dirty South Soccer understands that Walkes was on a jet ski and collided with a larger vessel. It’s a tragic loss for the entire MLS community.
