Kenneth Walker III Has Plenty Of Upside
2 years agoSeattle Seahawks rookie running back Kenneth Walker III (hernia) is recovering from hernia surgery, but ESPN's Dan Graziano hears that Walker is expected to return sooner than later. And once he does, Graziano wouldn't be surprised if he wins Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2022. Rashaad Penny is in front of Walker, but Penny hasn't been the picture of consistent health in his career. Walker will have a big opportunity with a team that wants to run a lot and has the offensive line to pull it off. If the 21-year-old is back by Week 1 or 2, he could start piling up major yardage right away. His fantasy stock has fallen since he had surgery, but Walker is a strong handcuff for anyone that drafts Penny, and he could have standalone value as an RB3/flex immediately.
