Early years

Walter was selected in the sixth round (179th overall) of the 2002 NFL Draft by the Dallas Cowboys. He was one of three Ohio State players selected by the Cowboys that year.

As a rookie, he started 8 games at center. The next year Al Johnson was drafted to replace him in the starting lineup and improve the center position. He remained a versatile backup and was used in four different positions along the offensive line. He was waived on September 3, 2005.

Houston Texans

Walter signed with the Houston Texans on November 18, 2005. Although he was a part of the regular roster, he was declared inactive for several weeks during the season.

Washington Redskins

The Washington Redskins signed him as a free agent on March 23, 2006, to be the backup center. He would mostly backup the guard and tackle positions, until being released on October 24.
