Rookie wide receiver Xavier Worthy believes the Kansas City Chiefs are ready to bring back the deep shots that once defined their offense.
During an appearance on FanDuel TV’s “Up and Adams”, Xavier Worthy shared what head coach Andy Reid told the team early in OTAs:
“Coach Reid told us during OTAs Phase 1, ‘When you come back, get your hamstrings ready,'” Worthy said.
“So, we kind of knew that we were going to be going a little deep during practice. We kind of got our bodies and our minds ready for what we’re going to be doing in practice.”
Kansas City has won consistently in recent years but faced criticism for a less explosive offense. Since their 2019 Super Bowl win, they’ve remained a top team, reaching the Super Bowl five times in six seasons, but without the same highlight-reel plays that once defined them.
Worthy, a first-round pick who ran a record-breaking 4.21-second 40-yard dash at the 2024 NFL Combine, could be the spark Reid and Patrick Mahomes need to stretch the field again.
