Kenneth Walker III - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Wanted back by Seahawks Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said Monday that Walker is "of course" a player that the team wants back in 2026, Jayna Bardahl of The Athletic reports.

Impact Walker reciprocated Macdonald's sentiment Friday, saying he'd "definitely stay" in Seattle if a new deal can be worked out, Kevin Patra of NFL.com reports. The impending free agent played in all 17 regular-season games in 2025, rushing 221 times for 1,027 yards and five touchdowns. He also secured 31 of 36 targets for 282 yards and has been a focal point of the Seahawks' offense throughout the postseason, especially with Zach Charbonnet (knee) having suffered an ACL tear in the divisional round. Walker will have another chance to impress with a workhorse opportunity in Sunday's matchup against the Patriots in Super Bowl LX.

Workhorse role in NFCCG win Walker rushed 19 times for 62 yards and a touchdown while bringing in all four of his targets for 49 yards in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Rams in the NFC Championship Game.

Impact Walker took over as the Seahawks' clear No. 1 option out of the backfield after teammate Zach Charbonnet suffered a serious knee injury in last week's playoff win over San Francisco. The 24-year-old Walker failed to reproduce his three-score outing from the wild-card round, but he still cracked the century mark in total yards while scoring his fourth rushing touchdown of the postseason. With no major risk to cut into his touch share, Walker is primed to handle another heavy workload when the Seahawks face the Patriots on Feb. 8 for Super Bowl LX.
