Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III pulled out all of the tricks on Monday.

The Seahawks trailed the Detroit Lions 14-0 early in the second quarter at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan.

With Seattle facing second-and-four on Detroit’s 42, quarterback Geno Smith flung a pass to Walker, who was standing just shy of the first down marker.

Walker was quickly wrapped up by Lions linebacker Alex Anzalone. But somehow, Walker was able to stay on his feet despite being flipped over not once, but twice by the Anzalone.

The acrobatics from Walker look even better in slow motion. Walker had enough balance to get back on his feet and add a few more yards with his legs. He ended up with a 10-yard gain.

Walker had missed the Seahawks’ last two games due to an oblique injury. He certainly looked healthy enough to play through the first half of action against the Lions.
