The duo of Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet helped the Seahawks finish with the No. 10 rushing offense in the NFL averaging 123. 3 yard per game.
Charbonnet went down in the divisional round of the playoffs with a torn ACL, but Walker picked up the load, ultimately winning Super Bowl MVP. While Charbonnet had a solid season as the No. 2 running back in Seattle with 730 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns, Walker was the biggest threat out of the backfield and thrived as both a runner and pass-catcher in 2025.
In the regular season, Walker finished with 1,032 rushing yards and five touchdowns while adding another 282 yards as a receiver. After the Super Bowl victory, the Seahawks made the decision to let Walker hit free agency and he quickly reached a deal with the Kansas City Chiefs . Charbonnet likely won’t be ready to start the 2026 NFL season as he continues to rehab from injury, and suddenly the Seahawks have a massive void on their offense .
