Former Texas Longhorns receiver Xavier Worthy was drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft.
from his apartment complex in Kansas City last week, and the news for the Chiefs rookie isn't exactly getting better as he begins his first-ever OTAs in the NFL.
Chiefs head coach Andy Reid spoke to the media on Wednesday and revealed that Worthy has been dealing with a hamstring injury that he suffered in practice earlier in the week.

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes addressed the injury to his potential No. 1 receiver as well, but admitted that there doesn't appear to be too much concern for Worthy as of now."He's asking the right questions. Before the hamstring injury he was getting the work in ... just being precautionary, he could probably get back out there right now if he really wanted to."
Worthy will make his NFL preseason debut on Saturday, Aug. 10 on the road against theJacksonville Jaguars. The Chiefs will kickoff the regular season at home against the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday, Sept. 5.
