Kenneth Walker has most rushing yards in first four games over last 15 years

Kenneth Walker has delivered a standout rookie campaign for the Kansas City Chiefs, amassing 537 rushing yards in the team’s first four games. This total not only leads the NFL but also marks the highest yardage by any player in that span over the past 15 years, surpassing DeMarco Murray’s 534-yard debut in 2014 with the Dallas Cowboys.

The milestone carries extra significance given Walker’s new position coach: Murray, who joined the Chiefs in February after six seasons as Oklahoma’s running backs coach. Murray, a former Sooners standout and third-round Cowboys draft pick in 2011, finished his breakout 2014 season with 1,845 rushing yards and 2,261 yards from scrimmage—figures Walker may now aim to chase as he builds momentum in Year 1.
