From the episode

Now with the Chiefs in 2026, he's on a great offense. There's very little behind him for depth, so I think he's going to have a really nice workload for the Chiefs in 2026... the Chiefs have talked all offseason about how much they're excited to have him behind Patrick Mahomes... This is an offense that's been missing explosives at the running back position.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Walker positioned for strong workload with Chiefs; minimal depth competition and offensive need.

Walker is on a great Chiefs offense with very little depth behind him, positioning him for a strong workload in 2026; the Chiefs have emphasized their excitement about having him behind Patrick Mahomes and his ability to provide explosiveness at running back—a position the offense has been missing. He's expected to be used heavily as a pass catcher, in the red zone, and potentially more if Mahomes checks down more frequently following his injury recovery.
