Walker's playoff showcase was made possible in part by the injury to Zach Charbonnet, which increased the load the Seahawks asked Walker to lift in the playoffs. He was on the field more on third downs and in the red zone.

Charbonnet's injury elevated Walker to workhorse in Seattle; Chiefs won't replicate that split.

Charbonnet's injury in Seattle increased Walker's load in the playoffs, elevating him to workhorse status with expanded third-down, red-zone, and receiving duties. In the Chiefs system, Walker is not expected to share carries with a complementary back in the same way he did with Charbonnet in Seattle, signaling a shift to a one-back approach.
