The experts at ESPN ranked Kansas City Chiefs star Kenneth Walker III as the fourth-best fantasy football running back heading into Week 7 of the 2026 NFL regular season.
Walker reclaimed his lead as the league's top rusher after a dominant performance last week and will be looking to make a statement against his former team.
Here is a stat prediction for Walker ahead of Kansas City's matchup against the Seahawks on 'Sunday Night Football':
RB Kenneth Walker predicted stats vs. Seahawks in Week 7
It's still too early to tell, but Walker looks like the best offseason acquisition of the 2026 NFL offseason through his first five games in Kansas City. The Chiefs, of course, expected him to perform well, but few foresaw him achieving such an elite level of productivity. The reigning Super Bowl MVP is on pace
to break running back Eric Dickerson's single-season rushing record and may break a few others along the way.
Walker will face his former team for the first time since Kansas City signed him this spring, and he'll surely have a chip on his shoulder. I expect another 150+ yard game with two touchdowns.
