Kansas City Chiefs RB Kenneth Walker III has to work for yards in Week 8 loss to Broncos
ESPN analysts have declared Kansas City Chiefs star Kenneth Walker III as the second-best fantasy football running back heading into Week 8 of the 2026 NFL regular season. Despite the Chiefs' struggles in Week 7, Walker will be looking to make amends after being defeated by his former team. For fantasy team owners, Walker is predicted to accumulate between 130-150 rushing yards and a touchdown against the Broncos, who rank 24th in rushing yards allowed in the league.
Walker's best performance against the Broncos came in Week 1 of the season, when he rushed for 173 yards and two touchdowns.
