During his interview with @EdEastonJr, Emmy Award winner Eric Stonestreet shared his thoughts on Kansas City Chiefs running back Kenneth Walker III

This week, Chiefs Wire's Ed Easton Jr. spoke with Emmy Award-winning actor and lifelong Kansas City Chiefs fan Eric Stonestreet.

In his interview with Easton Jr., Stonestreet, who stars in the new Coors Light campaign 'Mahomeses' alongside Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, discussed the offseason addition of running back Kenneth Walker III and whether he'd take him to a local Kansas City restaraunt.

"Man, first of all, when we got him, I was so excited. I'm so happy that Kenneth (Walker III) is a Kansas City Chief, given his play in Seattle and his Super Bowl MVP performance," said Stonestreet. "But then I start seeing pictures of him shirtless, and I'm like, okay, this guy is a tank. He is a load. Obviously, he's an NFL running back, but not all are created equal, and not all are built the same, but holy cow!"

During the 2025 season, Walker rushed for 1,027 yards and five touchdowns. He was also impactful in the passing game with 31 receptions for 282 yards. Stonestreet has earned a reputation for inviting new players to local restaurants as a welcome to Kansas City.

"So first and foremost, I would not want to get in the way of anything Kenneth has got going on there in the physique world. I hope to meet Kenneth for the first time at training camp. I always get to go up there," said Stonestreet. "Brett (Veach) and Coach (Andy Reid) are so nice about letting me come up, hang out, and see some practice, so I'll hopefully get to meet him, and I'll certainly extend the offer, but once the season starts, man, I stay free and clear of all that stuff, and they do for the most part too. He'll for sure know that I'm always a phone call away from taking him to what I feel is the best barbecue or the best taco in Kansas City."
