Kansas City Chiefs running back Kenneth Walker III spoke to reporters on Thursday at his introductory press conference, revealing his feelings on the team pursuing him early during free agency.
"Winning coaching. Watching over the years, been to plenty of Super Bowls, and you know, they know how to win. So, I felt like it's a great fit for me," said Walker, who appreciated being targeted early by Kansas City. "It means a lot, you feel appreciated and wanted, that's what everybody wants. So, I'm just happy to get in here and be able to get to know the guys and work."
Kansas City signed Walker to a maximum of $45,000,000 over three years, with $28,700,000 of his contract fully guaranteed at signing. Walker opened up about Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy's coaching approach.
"He intense, yeah, yeah, yeah. The more he talk about it the more intense he gets," said Walker. "It's been cool, but you want a person like that who's real passionate about the game, so I'm excited to get to work with him."
During the 2025 season, Walker rushed for 1,027 yards to go along with five touchdowns. He was also impactful in the passing game with 31 receptions for 282 yards for a Seahawks team that finished atop the NFC in the regular season.
