Kenneth Walker III Leads League Rushing as a Chief: His Seattle Return Is the Biggest Story on SNF

Sunday Night Football at Lumen Field this week isn’t just another game. We’re talking about a reunion that’s gonna hit different, with Kenneth Walker III, now a star for the Chiefs, stepping back onto our turf on October 25, 2026. This isn’t just a game, it’s *the* story heading into Sunday.

K9’s Shocking Return and His Dominance

Can you believe it? K9, wearing a Chiefs uniform, is leading the entire league with a ridiculous 665 rushing yards. He’s been an absolute beast, hitting over 100 yards on the ground in four out of five games for Kansas City. And get this, he’s scored twice against four of their five opponents already this season. Kansas City’s ground game is no joke, leading the league at 159.8 rushing yards per game, and K9 is their featured guy, especially going against his old team. Our defense has a serious challenge trying to contain him, that’s for sure. The talk around town is all about how we stop the guy who used to be ours.

Our Guys and How to Get in on the Action

On our side, Jaxon Smith-Njigba is coming into this game hot, with a projection of 6.5 receptions. You know JSN’s hands are automatic, and we’ll need him to step up big time to keep the chains moving. Now, if you’re like me and you want to feel every single play of Sunday Night Football with a little more skin in the game, there’s a sweet deal out there.

Sunday night is going to be electric. Watching K9 back in Seattle, even on the wrong side of the field, adds a whole new layer of intensity to this matchup. Let’s make sure Lumen Field is rocking louder than ever, cheering on JSN and the boys as they fight for every yard against their formidable opponent. Go Hawks!
