Expert Note
View More NotesComing back from bye, the Chiefs face their divisional rivals and 0-5, LA Chargers. If there was a game that could potentially turn the Chargers season around, it would be this one. That said, there is no reason to believe the Chargers won't continue to struggle and a rested Chiefs team will take advantage of it. The Chargers have been decent against the run, shutting down Ashton Jeanty in recent weeks. However, they are allowing the 10th most rushing yards to opponents and the 13th most fantasy points to opposing RBs. It's not the best matchup, but it's definitely not the worst. Especially if the Chiefs have an early lead, they should rely on the ground game heavily. I have Walker as my RB2 on the week, only behind Bijan Robinson.

Fantasy Impact
Walker notched his third multi-touchdown game of the season in what has been an impressive start to the year. The veteran running back found the end zone on rushes of two and 22 yards in the win. Overall, Walker has 537 rushing yards and six all-purpose touchdowns on the year. A locked-in high-end RB1 the rest of the way, he will be on bye in Week 5 before taking on the Chargers in Week 6.
