Chiefs’ Worthy exits early, rookies impress in first day of minicamp

 

The Kansas City Chiefs’ 2024 first-round pick did not finish his first practice as a pro.

 

In the latter half of practice during a play during the team session, wide receiver Xavier Worthy ran a go route and attempted to stretch for the ball. After the play, Worthy stretched his left leg before walking gingerly to the sideline.

 

He took his helmet off but later put it back on after taking a drink and talking with trainers and coaches. Worthy jogged to certain spots throughout the rest of practice but did not take another rep.

 

It was the end of the day for the 28th overall pick.

Doesn’t matter.
 

40 time is all that matters.

He will heal FAST 

[BeastMaster]

The history of blazing fast wideouts that are not built to withstand the rigors and demand of pro football is not good

 

He'll be a threat when he's able to be on the field, but I don't forsee him being healthy much

[RobbRiddick]

 

He may light it up

with his speed

but he cannot illuminate

a Macy's sale like Neon Keon.

It’s football. Guys get hurt all the time

[4th&long]

I thought he got hurt? That’s nothing.

Mahomes was also in Miami for the F1 race. Can't believe he wasn't working out with his new WRs. How dare he does anything other than football.

Mahomes was trying a new passing drill, throwing balls into F1 cars as they go by.

NostaBeanus knew this would happen which is why he traded down with the Chiefs.

The reporters had the "Worthy impresses in first day of camp" headline ready to go before practice began and didn't bother to change it after he promptly dropped his first pass and then got injured. 

 

Welcome to the world of preformed narratives.

They're already praying he catches the winning TD against us in the playoffs so the narrative goes full circle

Yeah but what if his gauntlet time was amazing?

I am more interested in seeing how he stands up to the LOS bumping and aggressive tackling of NFL DBs. Does his body hold up? Will he keep holding on to the ball after hits?

I didn't wish injury on anyone of course but the small frame will be an issue. I think he will still make a few highlight plays, hopefully not against us

[BuffaloBillyG]

Can't wait until the end of the year when Coleman has more catches, yards and TDs than Worthy and Leggette combined. 

[PBF81]

That's a shame! 

 

 

[Sweats]

I almost feel bad for him........DB's are going to punish this guy come game time.

[JerseyBills]

This is going to be one of the biggest eating crow trades , draft picks in a long time.

 

Ppl on here and Twitter were absolutely disrespecting the trade and not picking Worthy like crazy. It was unbelievable how bad ppl were trashing Beane n co

 

I was personally thrilled we didn't take him. There's years of proof that guys his size and skill set are busts but he ran super fast in shorts so ppl were talking like he's a shoe in to be an elite WR 

This isn't a good sign at all for KC

If he can't make it through a none contact practice i can't wait to see Millano, Benford & other laying the lumber to the guy & see just how fast he is after a couple of those hits sitting on the bench ...
