Chiefs' Worthy expected to return from 2-game absence vs. Ravens

Kansas City Chiefs receiver Xavier Worthy is expected to play Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens after missing two games with a shoulder injury, head coach Andy Reid said Friday, according to ESPN's Nate Taylor.

Worthy has been sidelined since the Chiefs' season opener against the Los Angeles Chargers after a collision with teammate Travis Kelce early in the game.

"He's been able to keep himself in good shape," Reid said.

Worthy's return provides an explosive boost to Kansas City's passing game. Known for his top-end speed, the 22-year-old recorded 638 yards on 59 receptions and tallied six touchdowns as a rookie in 2024.

The Texas product has been a full participant in practice this week.

The Ravens and Chiefs are both 1-2 entering Sunday's game. Kansas City's offense has struggled, ranking 21st in points scored.

Worthy rejoins a Chiefs receiving corps that includes Tyquan Thornton, JuJu Smith-Schuster, and Hollywood Brown.
