Kenneth Walker Poised To Bounce Back Against Raiders

Friday, October 2, 11:13 AM

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kenneth Walker had a decent fantasy performance in the 24-10 victory over the Miami Dolphins last week, but it was a down week by his lofty standards. After racking up over 175 scrimmage yards in each of the first two games, Walker finished Week 3 with just 70 rushing yards and three receiving yards. He was able to produce a good fantasy performance by scoring two touchdowns against Miami. Walker will have the opportunity to eclipse 100 rushing yards this week as the team travels to Las Vegas to face the Raiders. The Raiders defense has been a tough matchup for opposing offenses to begin the year, but the Chiefs are among the best offenses in the league. Walker has been one of the most proficient tackle-breakers this season, so he should be able to find success where others have not. The Chiefs also involve Walker as a pass catcher to create explosive plays in the screen game. Walker has multiple avenues to succeed and a high probability of finding the end zone any given week. Walker is ranked RB3 in our RotoBaller Week 4 PPR rankings, making him a top-end RB1 for fantasy.

Kimani Vidal News

Kimani Vidal Appears to Be Buried on the Chargers Running Back Depth Chart

Friday, September 25, 5:21 PM

Los Angeles Chargers running back Kimani Vidal was a breakout success story in 2025, recording 779 scrimmage yards and four touchdowns on 171 touches across 13 games (10 starts). However, the 25-year-old has seen his role in the Chargers offense evaporate in 2026, as he's yet to record a single touch through two games. Most of Vidal's production last season came while Chargers RB1 Omarion Hampton was sidelined by an ankle injury. Hampton is back to lead the Los Angeles backfield this season, and offseason acquisition Keaton Mitchell appears to be firmly ahead of Vidal on the team's running back depth chart as well. Barring an injury to Hampton and/or Mitchell, Vidal should remain off the radar of fantasy managers.
