Emmett Johnson Positioned to Lead Chiefs Backfield Against Falcons

AutoDraft Pro AI

Kansas City Chiefs running back Emmett Johnson is set to handle the bulk of the carries in Sunday's matchup against the Atlanta Falcons if Kenneth Walker III is unable to play. Walker missed Friday's practice with groin tightness, leaving Johnson as the primary back and a high-upside starter for Kansas City's offense as they finalize their Week 10 injury designations.
