Chiefs receiver Xavier Worthy exited after the third offensive play of Kansas City’s Friday night game against the Los Angeles Chargers with a right shoulder injury. After initially being labeled questionable to return, he was later ruled out.
Worthy was running an underneath pattern when he collided with teammate Travis Kelce. Worthy appeared to be in intense pain when walking to the sideline in Sao Paulo and again when he was led to the locker room.
Worthy enjoyed a fine rookie campaign last season when he scored nine touchdowns — six receiving, three rushing. He caught 59 passes for 638 yards.
The 22-year-old was expected to help soften the early-season loss of Rashee Rice, who is serving a six-game suspension for violation of the NFL’s personal conduct policy. Rice was disciplined for his role in multiple car accidents on a Dallas freeway in 2024 and subsequently leaving the scene.
