Chiefs' Xavier Worthy Misses Thursday Practice With Shoulder, Ankle Issues Ahead of Week 6

Kansas City will gauge his availability on Friday following a downgrade from full participation the day before.

Overview

  • The Chiefs listed Worthy as a non-participant Thursday after he practiced in full on Wednesday, putting focus on the final injury report.
  • Worthy was the only player on Kansas City’s active roster to miss Thursday’s session, according to the team.
  • He is playing through a torn labrum from a Week 1 shoulder dislocation that cost him Weeks 2 and 3.
  • His ankle swelled during last week’s flight to Jacksonville, yet he played in Week 5 and logged six catches for 42 yards plus a nine-yard rush.
  • With Rashee Rice suspended until Week 7, the Chiefs would likely lean on Marquise Brown, Tyquan Thornton and JuJu Smith-Schuster if Worthy cannot go.
