Kansas City kicked off their 2026 campaign with an emphatic 31-10 victory over the Denver Broncos on Monday night at Arrowhead Stadium. In his debut for the franchise, running back Kenneth Walker III commanded the offense by compiling a personal-best 173 rushing yards alongside a pair of scores.
The contest also marked a successful return under center for quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who showed no ill effects following offseason surgery to mend damaged ligaments in his left knee.
The Chiefs now shift focus to a Sunday night showdown against the Indianapolis Colts, who enter Week 2 seeking answers on defense after yielding significant ground yardage to Derrick Henry in their opener. While Indianapolis attempts to rebound from an opening loss and a late-season collapse in 2025, Walker heads into the matchup riding league-wide recognition for his dominant first outing.
