NFL Exec Says Xavier Worthy Will Help Chiefs 'Light Up' Opponents After 2024 Draft

The Kansas City Chiefs got a speedy wide receiver in the first round of the NFL draft after taking Xavier Worthy, and one NFL executive believes his quickness is going to "light people up," per The Athletic's Mike Sando.

"Kansas City is going to light people up with that kid," the executive said of Worthy. "He's a little, fast guy, and you think he's a track guy, but he's tough, finishes runs, fast, disciplined. He has a nice all-around game."

Worthy caught the attention of many when he posted a record-breaking 4.22 second 40-yard dash time at the NFL combine.
