Seahawks' Walker: NFL's Biggest Free Agent

0:00On March 9th, Kenneth Walker III, the 25-year-old Seattle Seahawks running back in Super Bowl MVP, just became an unrestricted free agent. The team skipped the franchise tag deadline in March, setting him up perfectly to land a massive contract while he's playing his best football. The running back market took shape recently, with Javante Williams signing for $8 million a year with the Dallas Cowboys. Insiders say teams now face choices like paying Walker around $14 million annually or sticking with cheaper options like Travis Etienne at $10 million. Fantasy football fans love the buzz around Walker's next spot, given how teams are scrambling for reliable rushers. The Denver Broncos showed interest by chasing Breeze Hall from the Jets, while the Jacksonville Jaguars might need a replacement if Etienne leaves. Kansas City Chiefs emerge as a top contender too. They've lacked a steady back since Isaiah Pacheco slowed down and have nearly $25 million in cap space after their own failed hall.

1:01Per suit, pairing Walker with Patrick Mahomes could be a game-changer. A Seattle reunion isn't off the table, but high costs and other roster priorities, likely priced them out. Walker's move will shake up the league this off season.
