Top 15 WR next year?

I think a lot depends on Rice's suspension, resigning Brown, and whether they bring in someone else. Worthy sure has matured from what he was coming out of Texas, where his hands would in question, along with his size, but he seems to have overcome that. Yes, he has top 15 potential from what I've seen.

Some games for sure. Deeper leagues where you can flex 2-3 WRs then I'd love to have him. But as others said, once Rice is back Rice will be the first look. At the end of last year and the start of this season, Rice was averaging 10 targets a game. He was the first look almost every rep and was uncoverable. Having said that Worthy looks the part and if he can keep improving should have good season next year. My only question is can he do it game in and game out when Rice is there.
No doubt Worthy has a chance to put up multiple TDs any given game and win you the week. Consistency is what worries me just a bit. I'd love to have him on my team but he might be too expensive in redraft once August comes.

From Week 11 on including the postseason (10 games) he put up 58/679/6 on 76 targets, adding 75/1 on the ground.
Solid catch percentage...although those thinking Rashee syphons some of the screen action away from X are likely right. But this is a bet I would make in 2025.

I'm not sure how much of Rice we will see in 2025, given the injury and looming suspension. So I'll probably be pretty high on Worthy in redraft. We may have to wait until 2026 to see what the Rice/Worthy dynamic really looks like.

Have to monitor the injury and suspension stuff for sure but Rice did get 85 targets in basically his last 9 games played. When he was on the field Rice was the #1 target, first look and was the hot read more often than not. Worthy definitely played well and will earn/deserve more targets but I still believe Rice is the #1 when he's on the field. The one thing Worthy has going for him is the do script a few special plays for him each game. they know he is a weapon and Andy Reid loves a special play every now and then. Worthy is a threat to house it at anytime. Good player but how expensive will he be come redraft time? The good thing is maybe as Kelce phases out, Rice can get the possession stuff and Worthy can be the big play guy. At least he is with a good QB that can make the big throws when needed.
Could both Rice and Worthy be top 20 WRs? maybe....

Oh dear.
Very low moral fiber franchise.

KC is 100% about winning. Nothing else matters. That’s not necessarily a bad thing.
I get it, it just keeps them being so easy to root against. The 2 Super Bowls I most enjoyed this decade were Phi/KC and TB/KC.
Always remember Bill Parcells quote from the 90s, "If Hannibal Lecter ran a 4.3, we'd say he had an eating disorder"

Yup. He will be suspended by the NFL, but this will not hurt his standing with the team at all. The Chiefs and Andy Reid have shown time and time again that they do not care at all about a player's domestic violence issues or history.

Wow, good chance him and Rice miss about half the season next yr
Nah. The NFL will get around to doing something in 2026. Probably 2 games.
The Rice punishment will tell a lot about what will happen to Worthy.
Yeah. World by the tail and intent on ffffffffffffffffffing it up. Maybe just walk away from the confrontation

Man, Rice now Worthy… It’s almost like they keep drafting guys with character issues hoping they’ll get the next Tyreek Hill.

That’s nuts. She showed signs of strangulation.
It’s insane that charges haven’t been pressed. NFL, man. The talent ~> knucklehead chart of legality is undefeated.

Doesn't sound that way at all. Doesn't sound like they had any evidence of that. In fact, Worthy has claimed she assaulted him, and police had already come out at his request (he says he declined to press charges). There are some crazy people out there, including athletes. Stuff like this happens.

Also, the DA isn't accepting the case "at this time" because of third-party testimony and the cooperation of Worthy with the investigation per the Austin-American Statesman.
Hot Sauce Guy

Oh - my bad. The original report I read he was arrested for “impeding her breathing or circulation”, which sounds a lot like strangulation. :shrug
Weird that they arrested him & called her the victim, given the added context.
Ah well. Not my circus, not my peanuts.
rockaction
Footballguy
Same here. He and his lawyer team were all over this like flies on dung, so I still think "at this time" is doing some lifting here. Sounds like a precaution against new evidence coming to light.

Not sure any of us have enough of the facts to fully understand the patten of events here. I’ll defer to the DA’s office.

Worthy just has to shake it off and focus on next season.
Hopefully this summer will be less cruel. Better bundle up with his cardigan until then.
