Kenneth Walker Draws Bijan Robinson Comparison From New Chiefs Teammate

Kenneth Walker, a newly signed running back for the Kansas City Chiefs, had a standout performance in his debut game, rushing for 173 yards and a touchdown on 23 carries, while also contributing 18 receiving yards and a touchdown. His performance ranked among the top of the week for running backs in the NFL. A teammate, wide receiver Xavier Worthy, compared Walker's blocking to that of All-Pro running back Bijan Robinson, suggesting the Chiefs may be planning to utilize Walker heavily moving forward. Walker, who previously split carries with Zach Charbonnet in Seattle, now has the entire backfield to himself in Kansas City, which could lead to more opportunities. While Walker has shown explosiveness, particularly in his 60-yard touchdown run against the Broncos, he has yet to reach the high-touch count seen by Robinson. The Chiefs' schedule includes matchups against teams known for allowing heavy runs, such as the Colts and Dolphins, which could further test Walker's potential.
