Kenneth Walker III owns 35.7% (Target Share), 34.3% (Share of KC Explosive Plays); Bijan Robinson is the only RB who beats Walker in both categories; an increase in his usage as a receiver should be on our radar.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalUsage

Walker's target share and explosive play rate lead RBs; injury to KC pass-catchers should boost his receiving usage.

Walker leads all RBs in target share (35.7% in Week 4) and share of explosive plays (34.3%), second only to Bijan Robinson across both metrics. With Tyquan Thornton and Rashee Rice sidelined by injury, the Chiefs' receiving unit has underperformed, positioning Walker for increased usage as a receiver; the Rams' response to receiver losses included a career-high 13 targets to their RB, suggesting Walker's receiving role should increase.
