NFL
Chiefs List Kenneth Walker III as Questionable Against Falcons
Rookie Emmett Johnson is in line for most of Kansas City’s carries if Walker sits.

Kansas City running back Kenneth Walker III missed practice Friday with a groin injury, and the Chiefs listed him as questionable for Sunday’s game at Atlanta.
Coach Andy Reid said Walker reported tightness when he arrived at the team facility Friday. Walker had not appeared on the Chiefs’ Wednesday or Thursday injury reports.
Walker has 872 rushing yards this season, eight fewer than NFL leader Bijan Robinson of the Falcons. Reid said rookie Emmett Johnson would handle most of the carries if Walker is out. Johnson scored his first NFL touchdown in last week’s 35-12 win over the New York Jets.
