[Goldman] Chiefs HC Andy Reid on WR Xavier Worthy: “We try to get them all involved the best we can. Sometimes you’re going to have that where they take somebody away… We’re not down on Xavier Worthy. We know he’s a good player. We’d like to get the ball into the good player’s hands.”

  1. I still don’t feel like the Chiefs are confident in his shoulder. They used him a lot his first games back and we saw nothing but pain and agony on his face on the sidelines. Now I think it’s just managing him to survive the season, it’s just a weird situation.

  2. “We’d like to get the ball into the good player’s hands”

    Y’all know what that means more check downs, jet sweeps and screens for worthy and rice yay!!💀

  3. Give it a little time, we haven’t seen the full wr room on the field together for that many games. Also we aren’t going to use the best plays and schemes until later in the year as usual. Just keep him healthy until January

  5. Mahomes actually tried to get him involved. There were 2 problems. The line was getting abused and Mahomes had no time. And second, Maxwell Hairston was super glued to Worthy and he was just too good for Worthy that night. Worthy just flat out couldn’t beat Hairston.

  6. They were trying to forcefeed Rice too much. Bills were ready for it. Took too long to adjust. Kelce was open more than usual. Too much pressure from the Bills with a 4 man rush to throw long.

  7. Bruh get the ball to the hands of whoever the open receiver is. And it’s probably not the guy with Maxwell Hairston draped on him all game

  8. I don’t think they are down on Worthy. I’m not down on him either. It just depends on what you think his role is. Worthy is not a number 1 receiver. He’s one of the best gadget players in the NFL. He’s a Swiss army knife that is used in creative ways.

    But he’s not a guy who can flat out beat man coverage against the better corners in the NFL. He just can’t do it. He’s not good enough. And everybody knows it. If I can see it, then the Chiefs and Andy Reid see it too. They turn on the tape and they see Maxwell Harison dominating Worthy. The tape doesn’t lie. So there is no sense in lying about it.

  9. Bills took away long throws and we refused to run the ball. Pacheco will be back which will help but if we get injured at RB again, expect this to happen again. And possibly even if we don’t get injured at RB again.

  10. He sounds really defensive in his answers that I’ve seen.  He should, if he’s recently watched that game.  He was thoroughly out coached.  Like Wanya Morris at left tackle levels of beaten.

  13. How about letting him run more routes that aren’t gos or aren’t within 5 yards. His best work is in routes 7-20 yards…

    Need more deep-mid crossers. Comebacks. Corner routes, not gos.

  14. I know it’s early but I’m getting the feeling Worthy might just be a slightly better Mecole Hardman. Hope he proves me wrong though

  15. Would love to see X run the FULL route tree not just go balls and gadget plays. His UT tape showed he can run everything.
