Walker running into OPOY conversation; elite RB Mahomes never had before.

Walker looks better than anybody could have imagined and is running his way into the offensive player of the year conversation; he has changed the Chiefs offense and is the first elite running back Patrick Mahomes has had in Kansas City; he has broken an approaching NFL record number of tackles over the first two weeks.
