Chiefs’ Xavier Worthy Has Dislocated Shoulder as Reid Calls Him Day-to-Day

Coach Andy Reid labeled him day-to-day, signaling a rehab-with-brace plan instead of immediate surgery.

Overview

  • NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported the right shoulder was dislocated in Friday’s loss after an early collision with Travis Kelce.
  • Worthy has undergone additional tests and sought a second opinion, with the team leaning toward a brace-supported return while keeping surgery on the table.
  • Andy Reid said Monday the receiver is rehabbing and “day-to-day,” and ESPN’s Adam Schefter characterized his status as week-to-week.
  • His availability for the Super Bowl rematch against the Eagles is unclear as Kansas City manages a thin receiver group with Rashee Rice suspended and Jalen Royals still working back from a knee issue.
  • Marquise Brown (10 receptions, 99 yards) led the way in Brazil, with JuJu Smith-Schuster and Tyquan Thornton picking up snaps in Worthy’s absence after a 2024 season in which Worthy led Chiefs wideouts in catches, yards and touchdowns.
