Is Kenneth Walker III Still Undervalued in Redraft Leagues?

Thursday, June 18, 8:31 AM

After being named the MVP of Super Bowl LX in February, running back Kenneth Walker III signed a three-year, $43 million contract with the Kansas City Chiefs in March. The 25-year-old has been a productive player over the past four years as a member of the Seattle Seahawks, averaging 1,140 scrimmage yards and seven touchdowns per season. However, he's never recorded more than 255 touches in a season and had his 2025 workload with the Seahawks impacted by the presence of Seattle back Zach Charbonnet (knee). In Kansas City, Walker III profiles as the clear number one back and should see all the touches he can handle. As long as he can stay healthy, Walker III may currently be undervalued in redraft formats as a lower-end RB1.

Cam Skattebo News

Cam Skattebo Confident he Can Return to Pre-Injury Form

Monday, June 22, 10:56 AM

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo (ankle) thinks he will be ready to go in Week 1 of the 2026 regular season after last year's gruesome season-ending ankle injury in his rookie campaign, according to Bobby Kownack of NFL.com. "It ain't gonna change who I am," Skattebo said. "I had an injury, you know, it is what it is. I've still got plenty of football left, plenty of life left, I'm not going to let this little ankle thing bother me. I'm going to get back [to] running people over like you see on the videos. It's going to be normal Cam Skattebo from here on out." After the Giants selected him in the fourth round in 2025, the Arizona State product had 617 total yards and seven touchdowns before injuring his ankle in Week 8. The 24-year-old took part in 11-on-11 drills during mandatory minicamp last week and should do more in training camp this summer. The Giants should rely more heavily on the running back in new head coach John Harbaugh's first year in the Big Apple, which makes Skattebo an intriguing RB2 target in single-year fantasy leagues in 2026 with the upside for more. RotoBaller currently has him ranked as the No. 20 fantasy RB.
