Chiefs' Xavier Worthy Not Expected to Play Week 3 vs. Giants

The update points to a cautious approach with his right shoulder after a brief return to practice.

Overview

  • Dianna Russini of The Athletic reports Worthy is unlikely to suit up against New York in Week 3.
  • The rookie practiced on a limited basis this week but has not been cleared to return.
  • He has been sidelined since injuring his right shoulder in the season opener and already missed Week 2.
  • With Worthy out, Kansas City is expected to lean on JuJu Smith-Schuster and Hollywood Brown at receiver, with Rashee Rice unavailable due to suspension.
  • Reported practice progress has fueled hope for a Week 4 return against the Ravens, though that timeline remains tentative.
