  "account": "According to ESPN, Kansas City Chiefs running back Kenneth Walker has been ranked as the third-best fantasy running back through the first three weeks of the 2026 NFL season. Despite having superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes on his team, Walker has emerged as the Chiefs' top offensive weapon. Fantasy managers should definitely start Walker this week, as predicted stats show he is likely to excel against the Raiders on Sunday. Walker currently leads the league in rushing yards, exceeding expectations for a player in only his second season. With a strong run defense in the Raiders' lineup, fantasy owners can expect Walker to put up big numbers, likely surpassing 150 rushing yards and scoring at least one touchdown. Walker's best game this season was against the Raiders in Week 11 of the 2022 NFL season, where he rushed for 26 yards on 14 carries and scored two touchdowns.
