Kenneth Walker III News
Monday, June 8, 4:40 PM
When asked if there is anything that new running back Kenneth Walker III can improve at, Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy pointed to pass-blocking and receiving, according to Nick Roesch of Heavy.com. The Chiefs made a big splash in free agency by signing Walker, the Super Bowl MVP with the Seattle Seahawks to close out last season, and with the return of Bieniemy, he's expected to be part of a much-improved rushing attack for KC. "First of all, what I want Kenneth to work at is just understanding that we just have to become a better player when the ball is not in our hands," Bieniemy said. The 25-year-old former second-round pick (41st overall) by Seattle in 2022 out of Michigan State had his second 1,000-yard rushing season in 2025 and added five rushing TDs, but he really took off in the postseason, gaining 313 yards and four TDs on 65 carries over three games. Walker is no stranger to lower-body injuries in his NFL career, but with the Chiefs looking to make him more of a complete back, he'll clearly be in the RB1 conversation as a top-12 fantasy back in his first season in the AFC West.

TreVeyon Henderson News
Tuesday, June 9, 5:26 AM
As a rookie in 2025, New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson was the only back on the roster to play in all 17 games, but he saw the field on fewer than 46% of the team's offensive snaps. Despite the limited opportunities, he still led the team with 1,132 yards from scrimmage and 10 touchdowns, and heading into year two, he has told reporters his goals are to improve as a pass protector and receiver, which should lead to more total work and an elevated fantasy floor to go with his already electric upside. Finishing third in the Offensive Rookie of the Year voting, Henderson is starting from a higher place than most, but historically, young running backs have seen monumental growth in their second season in a Josh McDaniels offense. If the 23-year-old second-round pick can follow suit with even a modest step forward, Henderson has true RB1 potential and could return immense value from his current ranking of RotoBaller's dynasty RB15.
