In the world of NFL, few players have made a mark as swiftly as Kenneth Walker III. Through just four games this season, Walker has already secured five touchdowns, including a remarkable two touchdowns in each of two games. His explosive performance has not only caught the attention of fans and critics alike but has also etched his name in the history books.
With a total of 19 games under his belt, Walker has already managed to score at least two rushing touchdowns in five separate games. This remarkable feat has earned him a well-deserved spot among the elite players who achieved such a record in their first 20 career games in NFL history. As we head into Week 6, Walker has a golden opportunity to join the likes of Clinton Portis and Eric Dickerson, who have each achieved this incredible feat in six games.
While Walker's performance is undoubtedly impressive, he faces stiff competition from New Orleans running back Jamaal Williams, who, since the start of last season, holds the record for the most games with at least two rushing touchdowns. Williams has an impressive tally of six games, one ahead of Walker.
However, Walker's impact on the Seattle Seahawks' offense cannot be underestimated. Throughout this season alone, he has consistently showcased his importance to the team. In fact, following the Seahawks' recent triumph over the Carolina Panthers, Walker's exceptional performance earned him the prestigious title of NFC Offensive Player of the Week.
Unsurprisingly, Walker's teammates are in awe of his skills. Wide receiver DK Metcalf, in particular, couldn't help but praise Walker's contributions to the team. "He sets the tone. Especially in the running back room and especially when we're out there on offense. Just the way with how he runs the ball," Metcalf said. "He's an incredible running back"
As Walker continues to dominate the field and capture the hearts of fans, it is clear that his exceptional talent and dedication make him a force to be reckoned with. With each game, he solidifies his place as one of the most exciting and impactful players in the NFL.
