Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy, a former standout at the University of Texas, was arrested on criminal charges in Austin, Texas. The details surrounding the arrest are still emerging, and the specific charges have not been publicly disclosed.
Worthy, a second-year player for the Chiefs, was drafted in the fifth round of the 2023 NFL Draft after a successful collegiate career. He was known for his exceptional speed and big-play ability, earning recognition as a Freshman All-American in 2021.
The arrest comes at a time when Worthy is vying for a roster spot with the Chiefs. He is currently competing with other young receivers for a place on the team’s depth chart. The legal situation could potentially impact his chances of making the final roster, as the Chiefs will likely evaluate the situation carefully before making any decisions.
The Chiefs organization has not yet issued a public statement regarding the arrest. It remains unclear what impact this incident will have on Worthy’s future with the team. The situation will be closely monitored by both the Chiefs and the NFL, and further updates are expected as more information becomes available.
