With the Chiefs in 13 personnel, this appears to be a run-first look, but Mahomes pulls the ball and quickly finds Xavier Worthy over the middle, who was wide open on a crossing pattern with the Colts looking to defend the boundary against the run.

Worthy wide open on play-action; holds defense on deep shots for teammates.

Worthy is featured in multiple plays including deep routes and play-action completions. Early in the game, on a run-action look, Worthy ends up wide open over the middle on a crossing pattern as the Colts' defense flows toward the run, giving Mahomes an easy completion to build rhythm. Later, Worthy runs deep routes in trips formations and holds the defense in place on deep shots, allowing teammates like Thornton to work downfield. The source notes Worthy provides 'eye candy' on motion and line looks that help free up other receivers, demonstrating his value in the Chiefs' offensive scheme.
