Kenneth Walker III, the Seahawks' Super Bowl MVP, was reportedly "privately irked" by the team's decision to split carries between him and Zach Charbonnet, who had a torn ACL during the postseason. Walker, who performed well in the Super Bowl, signed a three-year contract worth up to $45 million with the Chiefs. The move left Seattle facing uncertain future at running back heading into 2026 with Walker out of contract. The Chiefs have won two of the last four Super Bowls and are starting to rebuild their offense around Patrick Mahomes.
