Walker III

•

His 0.42 avoided tackles per attempt last season were the most in PFF’s 19 years of statistics for all running backs with at least 50 carries. The next-most with any player with at least 150 carries in a season was 0.31, which is a tie that includes 2014 Marshawn Lynch and 2020 Nick Chubb.

A significant difference in 2024 compared to 2023 is that Walker was the primary running back during two-minute drills. Walker ended up leading the league in two-minute drill receptions by a running back at 15, leading to 92 yards. In 2023, he didn’t receive a third-down target.

New offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak’s last four teams have ranked in the top seven in zone run concept frequency, while the Seahawks were in the bottom half of teams last season. Walker averages 4.4 yards per carry in zone runs compared to 4.0 in gap, so this change should help Walker’s efficiency.
