Walker rushed for 173 yards and scored 2 TDs... had nearly a 100-yard game by halftime (14 rushes, 89 yards). The Chiefs set the tone early, with Walker running on seven of their first nine plays. The Chiefs haven't had a 1,000-yard rusher since 2017. Looks like that's about to finally change.

Positive signalRole

Walker's 173-yard, 2-TD debut establishes Chiefs' long-awaited 1,000-yard rushing threat.

The Super Bowl 60 MVP from the Seahawks arrived as a free agent to provide the Chiefs with a significant new dimension and running game. Walker rushed for 173 yards and 2 TDs in his debut, nearly reaching 100 yards by halftime on 14 rushes for 89 yards. The Chiefs ran on seven of their first nine plays, establishing early momentum. Kansas City hasn't had a 1,000-yard rusher since 2017, and Walker's performance suggests that drought is about to end.
