Bold running back predictions NFL Week 6: Kenneth Walker, Ashton Jeanty & more
Bold predictions for some star running backs in NFL Week 6.
The NFL's Week 6 holds predictions for several running backs: Kenneth Walker III, Ashton Jeanty, and Christian McCaffrey. Walker III is expected to rush for over 200 yards against the Chargers on October 4, 2026, in Kansas City. Walker has shown impressive skills, forcing 39 missed tackles and averaging 4.22 yards after contact per rush.
Despite Kansas City's solid defense, Walker needs to perform standout plays to maximize his impact. Jeanty will be responsible for catching 10-plus passes for over 100 receiving yards against the Bills on January 4, 2026, at Allegiant Stadium. He has 291 rushing yards on 88 attempts, prompting coaches to utilize his passing skills more frequently.
McCaffrey will face Washington, a team that has limited rushing yards and touchdowns from opposing running backs. McCaffrey's consistent performance and the team's weaker pass defense make him a valuable asset. These predictions set the stage for an exciting Week 6 in the NFL.
