Kenneth Walker III Selected By Seattle
3 years agoThe Seahawks picked Michigan State running back Kenneth Walker III with the 41st pick of the 2022 NFL Draft. While he's making progress, Chris Carson (neck) has an uphill battle to get healthy. As a result, Seattle needed to fill a void in the backfield, so taking Walker was the logical approach. The 21-year-old, who played his first two seasons at Wake Forest, finished his final collegiate year with the Spartans by rushing for 1,636 yards and 18 touchdowns while averaging 6.2 YPC. Walker will have a chance to make some noise for his new team, although he'll likely battle for touches Rashaad Penny, DeeJay Dallas, and Travis Homer.
