Xavier Worthy's sophomore season never gained traction, as injuries, inconsistent quarterback availability, and the return of established weapons kept him from carving out a meaningful fantasy role. The speedster still flashed explosive upside and posted stronger numbers when paired with Patrick Mahomes, but Kansas City's offense clearly revolved around Rashee Rice whenever he was available. Worthy's usage suggests better days could be ahead, especially after dramatically underperforming expectations compared to Year 1. If Rice misses time again or the Chiefs' offense rebounds, Worthy remains an intriguing post-hype breakout candidate entering his age-23 season.
