Chiefs anticipate improved offense with Mahomes, Walker in 2026

Expectations are high for the Kansas City Chiefs' offense in 2026, contingent on the return of quarterback Patrick Mahomes and the addition of running back Kenneth Walker III. After struggling to a 6-11 record last season, the Chiefs aim to enhance their passing and running games. Mahomes, who missed the final three games of 2025 due to injury, had a career-low completion rate of 62.7 Percent. Walker, a two-time 1,000-yard rusher and the reigning Super Bowl MVP, is expected to bolster the ground game and bring winning experience. The Chiefs look for a stronger season with Mahomes fully healthy and Walker contributing significantly.
