After a 2-0 start, the Chiefs may ease Kenneth Walker III’s workload, ESPN’s Nate Taylor says. Walker has averaged 28 touches through two games, a pace Taylor says is unsustainable; he expects Walker to remain the featured back while rookie Emmett Johnson gets more work.
Walker has 47 carries for 290 yards and a rushing touchdown, plus nine catches for 79 yards and another score through two games. Taylor says Walker should not keep getting 26–30 touches a game; the article argues Kansas City should aim for 20–23. Johnson has 39 rushing yards on 10 carries and 64 receiving yards on four catches.
