Not many NFL starters have had to fight for touches the way that Kenneth Walker III has in Seattle this season. The former Michigan State star and Doak Walker Award winner is the Seahawks’ RB1, but he’s treated like an RB2 most of the time, especially when Seattle is in the red zone.
The fourth-year running back out of Michigan State has repeatedly had impressive games, but he’s been held back by his lack of touches near the goal line.
For an NFL running back, Walker is really good. For a fantasy running back, he’s not as good, but that’s not his fault nor should he be judged on fantasy numbers.
