Kenneth Walker III calls MVP award a "surreal moment"

Our Summary

Kenneth Walker, the Seattle Seahawks running back, earned the Super Bowl LX MVP award, becoming the first running back to achieve this since Terrell Davis in 1998. Walker's performance included 135 rushing yards on 27 carries and 26 receiving yards on two catches, despite a 49-yard touchdown being nullified by a penalty. His 135 rushing yards marked the highest in a Super Bowl since Davis's 157 yards. Walker stepped up as the lead back following Zach Charbonnet's season-ending knee injury, amassing 313 rushing yards and four touchdowns in the postseason. With free agency approaching, Walker's future with the Seahawks remains uncertain, but his Super Bowl MVP performance has secured his place in team history.
