Xavier Worthy Health, Injury Updates & History

Not practicing Thursday due to ankle/shoulder issues after being a full participant on Wednesday, co...

He is not expected to play Sunday in their Week 3 matchup vs the Giants

May be close to returning to the Chiefs lineup if he returns with a shoulder brace for his dislocated left shoulder, and he is sorely needed for the 0-2 Chiefs

Has been ruled out of Week 2 with a dislocated left shoulder sustained in a Week 1 collision with teammate Travis Kelce

Is expected to get some practice work in on Thursday ahead of Week 2, he will still likely be out for Week 2, but a return to practice is a welcome sight as he manages the dislocated shoulder he sustained on Thursday

With an official update from the team regarding his dislocated left shoulder, Worthy is now considered week-to-week and is highly likely to miss some time

There's a chance he could hit IR with the dislocated shoulder he sustained on Friday, but some missed time either way is likely, he could play again this season with a shoulder brace or harness, it could affect his catch radius though

Left season opener in the first quarter after sustaining a shoulder Injury from a friendly fire hit from Travis Kelce, he has been ruled out of the game

Had a scare and entered concussion protocol but was quickly cleared, had a full practice only 2 days later

Worthy ran the fastest 40 time ever at the rookie combine. However, he was held out of mandatory minicamp due to hamstring issues, which is concerning according to our panel of Pro Football Docs. He had shown good speed and chemistry with Patrick Mahomes in recent practices before his injury. Missing crucial time to learn while sidelined will hurt him, and he will not be at full capacity at the start of training camp. Worthy will need to be eased in as speed and soft tissue issues do not mix well. While he may not make an immediate impact, he has the potential to produce as the season progresses.
