Rushing TD in Week 5 win Worthy secured three of six targets for 25 yards and rushed once for a three-yard touchdown in the Chiefs' 26-13 win over the Saints on Monday night. He also recovered a Carson Ste...
Impact Worthy entered the night as the Chiefs' de facto No. 1 receiver due to Rashee Rice's (IR, knee) absence, but he watched Travis Kelce and JuJu Smith-Schuster command the bulk of Patrick Mahomes' attention. Worthy finished third in targets behind his two teammates, and he would have had a relatively uneventful night had it not been for his early fourth-quarter touchdown rush, his second score on the ground and fourth trip to the end zone overall. Worthy should work into a progressively larger role in coming games, and he'll next take aim at the talented but inconsistent 49ers defense in a Week 7 road Super Bowl rematch following a Week 6 bye.

Andy Reid on Xavier Worthy Usage: 'You Got a Chance to at Least See Him Operate Out There and Do Some Nice Things as One of the Primary Receivers' | Press Conference 9/30 Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid addressed the media on Monday following their Week 4 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers.

Catches long touchdown Worthy recorded three catches on four targets for 73 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 17-10 win over the Chargers.
Impact Worthy is the last of Kansas City's projected top three wide receivers to be healthy, with both Rashee Rice (knee) and Hollywood Brown (shoulder) sidelined for the long term. He likely won't take on huge target volume, but he still showed what he can do with consistent opportunity after breaking free on a go route for a 54-yard touchdown just before halftime. Worthy is likely to remain a boom-bust fantasy option moving forward, but his snap rate should increase significantly while giving his production the opportunity to follow.

Light output in Week 3 Worthy caught two of four targets for 17 yards during Sunday's 22-17 win against the Falcons.
Impact Worthy ran the second-most routes on the team with 31, per PFF, trailing only Rashee Rice and tight end Travis Kelce. It didn't result in significant output in this one, but Worthy should remain a part of the game plan for a Chiefs offense that is lacking weapons beyond Rice and Kelce. Worthy seems unlikely to draw target volume consistent enough to be anything more than a touchdown-dependent fantasy contributor.

Held to three touches again Worthy caught two of four targets for 17 yards and added a five-yard run in Sunday's 26-25 win over the Bengals.
Impact Worthy scored touchdowns on two of his three touches in his NFL debut, but the speedster didn't make as much of the same volume in his second NFL game. The rookie first-round draft pick's role could expand as the season goes on, as the Chiefs will be without Hollywood Brown (shoulder) for the rest of the regular season, leaving Worthy as the top candidate to work as the team's No. 2 wide receiver behind Rashee Rice, who was the only player to exceed 22 receiving yards for Kansas City against the Bengals. Worthy will look to expand his usage in Week 3 against the Falcons.
