Chiefs running back Kenneth Walker III has been ruled out for Sunday's road game against the Atlanta Falcons with a groin injury, which he reported to the team in the morning before the Chiefs' final practice of the week. Coach Andy Reid said Friday that the injury, which occurred in practice Thursday, is considered minor, though it leaves Walker a tough turnaround. Sources told ESPN and NFL Network that the Chiefs want to give him a week. The game was billed as a meeting of the league's top two rushers, with Falcons running back Bijan Robinson leading the NFL with 880 yards to Walker's 872. Rookie Emmett Johnson will lead the Kansas City rushing attack. ESPN also offered 15 predictions for Week 10 from its NFL experts, covering upset picks, projected stat lines, fantasy sleepers, touchdown scorers and other calls. Among them, ESPN suggested the Panthers and Steelers could win outright as underdogs, and it projected Dolphins receiver Malik Washington and Cardinals tight end Trey McBride for strong games.
