Xavier Worthy Boosts Mahomes and Kelce Ahead of 2026 Season
Xavier Worthy enters the 2026 NFL season with renewed confidence. He suffered a torn labrum and a dislocated shoulder in the season opener after colliding with Travis Kelce, leading to surgery in January.
The injury limited him to just one touchdown this year, a steep drop from six the previous season. Speaking at a youth football camp he hosted, Worthy highlighted steady physical and mental progress in his recovery.
He said he’s ready to take on a larger role alongside Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce in the Chiefs’ offense. Chiefs fans are already viewing the young receiver as a key pre‑season boost.
