Seattle's Kenneth Walker records 88 rushing yards and 1 touchdown in Week 5
Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker accounted for eight rushing attempts for 88 yards and one touchdown in Week Five's game against the New Orleans Saints.
What It Means:
With Rashaad Penny out for the season with a broken fibula, Walker recorded his best performance in his first NFL season including an electric 69-yard touchdown run. Now with an elevated opportunity as Seattle's clear lead back, the Seahawks' rookie should be a priority among all waiver candidates in Week 6 when evaluating his 47% and 47.5% roster percentage in Yahoo and ESPN season-long leagues.
On 23 rushing attempt this season, Walker has recorded 2.83 yards after contact per carry and a 61.6% break-away percentage.
