[Nate Tice @Nate_Tice]

Kenneth Walker reached 21.21 MPH on his long TD run on MNF.

That one carry is already 50% of the amount of 20+ MPH plays that the Chiefs skill players had as ball carriers in all of 2025, per @NextGenStats.

[Ari Meirov @MySportsUpdate]

#Chiefs undrafted rookie LT Kahlil Benson on Monday night:

• 32 pass-blocking snaps
• 1 pressure allowed (3.2% rate).
• Excellent in the run game

His story is unreal: Benson won a National Championship at Indiana last season but went undrafted and unsigned. He attended Chiefs camp as a tryout player alongside 75+ players, earned a contract, made the 53-man roster, started Week 1—and balled out against Denver’s vaunted defense.

Per @NextGenStats, Benson allowed the fewest pressures among all rookie OTs in Week 1, which includes 3 first-round picks.

[Ryan Paganetti @RyanPaganetti]

Kenneth Walker’s 101 rush yards over expected was more than double any other RB in week 1.

If you remove Kyle Monangai, it was more than *triple* any other RB. @NextGenStats

[Trevor Sikkema @TampaBayTre]

However bad you thought the Broncos' tackling was against the Chiefs, it was even worse

Denver's 248 missed tackle yards allowed were the most in a single game in @NextGenStats' database. Their 29.8% missed tackle percentage is the third worst single-game score since 2018

[Next Gen Stats @NextGenStats]

Walker gained 148 of his 173 rushing yards on under center runs against the Broncos. No other Chiefs running back has recorded 120 or more rushing yards from under center runs in a single game since at least 2016.

[Next Gen Stats @NextGenStats]

Kenneth Walker III generated +101 rushing yards over expected against the Broncos, the most by a Chiefs running back since at least 2018.

#DENvsKC | #ChiefsKingdom

[Next Gen Stats @NextGenStats]
