Overview

  • Kansas City re-added Worthy to the Week 5 injury report Sunday after he practiced fully all week and had no designation on Saturday.
  • NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe reported his ankle was swollen after the team flight to Jacksonville, prompting the questionable tag as a precaution.
  • Ian Rapoport and other insiders say Worthy is expected to play against the Jaguars, with official status set 90 minutes before kickoff.
  • The speedster returned in Week 4 and logged five catches for 83 yards plus two rushes for 38 while managing a dislocated shoulder and a reported torn labrum.
  • If he is limited or inactive, opportunities would likely increase for Marquise “Hollywood” Brown, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Tyquan Thornton and the tight ends.
