Chiefs bellcow with underrated receiving upside; RB3 in RPG two years ago
Kenneth Walker IIIRB
Bowers identifies Kenneth Walker as a hero RB candidate with increased passing-game upside in Kansas City. Walker moved to the Chiefs specifically to secure a bellcow role after losing snaps to Zach Charbonnet in Seattle's committee; beat reporters indicate the team is dialing up screens for him in the pass game. While not a great route runner, Walker can house screens and should play more in passing downs, giving him fuller field involvement than he had in Seattle. Two years ago he was RB3 in receptions per game at 4.2 (46 receptions in 2024 despite only 11 games played in 2023); if he reaches close to 50 receptions, will fully pay off ADP and deserves clear hero RB category consideration.
