Yahoo Sports NFL on Kenneth Walker III
From the article
Losing Kenneth Walker III to the Chiefs in free agency certainly hurt. The two biggest things the Seattle run game has missed for most of the first half of the season were the explosiveness and the ball security that Walker brought to the table.
STACKED’s take
Walker's departure to Kansas City left Seattle's run game without his explosiveness and elite ball security.
Walker's loss to the Chiefs in free agency hurt the Seattle run game significantly. During his four seasons in Seattle, Walker fumbled only three times on 821 regular-season rushing attempts, demonstrating elite ball security. His replacements (Jadarian Price, Emanuel Wilson and George Holani) have put the ball on the ground six times in 195 rushing attempts so far this season, showing a dramatic increase in fumble rate. While Walker had a tendency to bounce runs outside looking for the big play, he had the burst and speed to create an outsized number of explosive plays despite finishing in the bottom half of the league in success rate.
