The Seattle Seahawks have a big problem right now. None of their healthy running backs are under contract beyond this season, and even though Zach Charbonnet should be back for the start of the season, knee injuries are always tricky.
That, plus the way he's performed this postseason, may have changed the team's stance on Kenneth Walker III. What once seemed to be a potential candidate to walk away in free agency might now be one of their primary targets in the offseason.
At least, that's how general manager John Schneider made it sound. Talking to Seahawks beat writer Gregg Bell of The News Tribune, the Seahawks' main decision-maker took notice of Walker's surge and value in the playoffs.
