During Friday's press conference, Kansas City Chiefs running back Kenneth Walker III discussed his highly anticipated return to Seattle | @EdEastonJr

Running back Kenneth Walker III of the Kansas City Chiefs shared his thoughts on his return to Seattle this Sunday. Walker said that he had talked with Eric EB Bieniemy about his experience in his former team and the pointers Bieniemy provided. However, Walker emphasized that the team's performance is more important than his individual success.

Last season, Walker rushed for 1,027 yards and five touchdowns while also contributing in the passing game by catching 31 passes for 282 yards. He was named Super Bowl LX MVP with 27 carries for 135 yards and 26 receiving yards. The Chiefs quarterback shifted the focus from Walker's return to the team's success over the next five games.

Walker stressed the importance of every player on the team and acknowledged that without the performance of the players up front, he wouldn't be able to achieve his success.
