Chiefs Expect Xavier Worthy to Play After Friday Return With No Injury Designation

His availability steadies a thin receiver group facing a Lions secondary missing key pieces.

Overview

  • After sitting out Thursday with shoulder and ankle issues, Xavier Worthy practiced Friday and Andy Reid said he "moved around good."
  • The Chiefs listed no players with game designations for Week 6, indicating Worthy is on track for Sunday night against Detroit.
  • Worthy has been managing a reported torn labrum since a Week 1 shoulder dislocation, missing Weeks 2–3 before returning in Week 4.
  • With Rashee Rice suspended until Week 7, Worthy’s presence remains pivotal for Kansas City’s receiving depth and game plan.
  • Detroit ruled out cornerback Terrion Arnold and has other defensive backs banged up, shaping the matchup at Arrowhead.
