The Seattle Seahawks have a new quarterback.
They also moved on from their star pass catchers.
What remains the same, however, is running back Kenneth Walker III.
That was made evident in a post shared by the Seahawks on social media.
Walker averaged 8.25 yards per carry against a stacked box in their Week 2 win against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
On another level.

Simply put, opposing teams know what’s coming, yet they simply can’t do anything to stop him from doing what he does best.
For years, the Seahawks have been a run-heavy team, and not even having Sam Darnold at quarterback will change that.
With Zach Charbonnet as another backfield threat, the Seahawks have one of the most well-established duos in the league.
Darnold has looked OK through his first two starts with Seattle, and it had a legitimate chance to win in Week 1 against the San Francisco 49ers as well.
Yet, history isn’t necessarily on their quarterback’s side.
Darnold has always fared better when he has a strong running game, which is perhaps why the Seahawks were a good fit.
Led by their outstanding defense and an old-school offense, the Seahawks could be a legitimate threat to make the playoffs this season.
They may not have a star like Christian McCaffrey, but they look like a dangerous team in the NFC West.
With Walker dominating this way on the ground, opposing defensive coordinators may want to try a different strategy to try to contain the veteran tackle-breaker.
