Carolina Panthers running back Miles Sanders carried the ball nine times for 24 yards and a touchdown while adding five catches for 38 yards in a 37-27 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 3. Sanders dealt with a pectoral injury during the week leading up to his Week 3 game but he showed no ill effects on Sunday. Despite a pedestrian day on the ground, Sanders finished third on the team with nine targets, giving him 20 over his first three games of the season. The veteran running back has yet to post a breakout game but his usage in the passing attack is encouraging moving forward. Sanders' next game will be against the Minnesota Vikings at home.

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III had his second two-touchdown game in as many weeks in Sunday's 37-27 win over the Carolina Panthers. In the Week 3 matchup, Walker carried the ball 18 times for 97 yards and added 59 more yards through the air on his three catches, leading the team with 166 scrimmage yards. The 22-year-old displayed incredible elusiveness on multiple plays to add extra yards on the ground and in the air. On one play in the second quarter, Walker froze defensive back Troy Hill with a juke that resulted in a 36-yard gain that set Jason Myers up for the third of his five field goals. Next week the Seahawks play against the Giants, who have allowed a rushing touchdown to each starting running back they have faced so far in 2023. Walker is primed for another big game in Week 4.
