Who is Xavier Worthy? All we know about Chiefs WR

Xavier Worthy was selected by the Kansas City Chiefs in the first round of the 2024 NFL draft.

Worthy was raised in Fresno, California, alongside the rest of his siblings by his mother Nicky Jones. He attended Central East High School in Fresno, where he helped the program win its first CIF Division State Championship in 2019.

Worthy completed high school early during the COVID-19 pandemic after his mother enrolled him in the Apex Virtual Learning School, which she described as "simple and easy to follow."

Following his stellar high school performances, he earned scholarship offers nationwide and chose to join the Texas Longhorns.

Worthy has two younger sisters, Ree and Onie.

What can be expected from Xavier Worthy in Kansas?

Xavier Worthy is the fastest player in the history of the NFL Combine, marked by his 40-yard dash time of 4.21 seconds. With the departure of Tyreek Hill to the Miami Dolphins, the Chiefs sought to replenish their offensive explosiveness, and Worthy's selection appears to have filled that void.

Worthy is expected to be a pacy outlet for Patrick Mahomes in a stacked Kansas City Chiefs offense. Mahomes now has Travis Kelce, Hollywood Brown, Rashee Rice, and Xavier Worthy to throw to.

The Chiefs want to become the first team in NFL history to achieve a three-peat. By drafting Worthy, they have an offense that has the potential to accomplish the feat.
