Kenneth Walker III

No. 9 · 5th season

Walker III won the Super Bowl with the Chiefs. He's still showing up for Seattle.

He's a champion now, wearing different colors. But on June 11, Kenneth Walker III will walk back into a Seattle Seahawks ring ceremony as the guest who earned his own hardware somewhere else.

Walker III was named MVP of Super Bowl LX as a member of the Kansas City Chiefs. The Seahawks — the team he played for before that — are holding their ring ceremony on the same day. He said he'll be there.

That's a genuinely strange situation to navigate. The rings belong to Seattle. The MVP belongs to him. Both things happened, and now he's standing in the middle of them.

What it means for the people in that room is hard to know. But showing up says something. He didn't have to.
