Hall of Fame running back Jerome Bettis commented on Kenneth Walker III's recent signing with the Kansas City Chiefs during an interview. Bettis noted Walker's performance for the Seattle Seahawks last season, where he rushed for 1,027 yards and had 31 receptions. Bettis mentioned that Walker's split time with Zach Charbonnet might have influenced the Seahawks' decision not to offer him a competitive contract. Kansas City, however, pursued Walker vigorously, securing a lucrative three-year deal. Bettis aims to participate in the upcoming American Century Championship in July.
