- Early career production - Dynamic threat downfield & after the catch - Elite speed & start-stop ability - Fluid mover w/ good route running chops - Ball tracking is A+
Not entirely sure why the vibe isn't higher when talking about him in the WR class. pic.twitter.com/dv3JjdyZgh
I'll write something fresh about Worthy tomorrow morning now that he's a Chief to lay out how he's more than speed, but for now here's an excerpt from article linked in the below tweet... https://t.co/EcW7QtUrFFpic.twitter.com/811ahCEfMS

Why did all those other teams pass on him? [Reply]

Small, fast guys aren't supposed to do well in the NFL.
They either
1) Rely too heavily on their physical talent and don't work on being a true NFL receiver.
or
2) Are injury prone because they'll get lit up by NFL defenders. Rodney Harrison was scoffing at the thought of Worthy doing well because of his size. [Reply]

It helps now that you can’t blast WRs over the middle. The game has changed enough for the smaller ones to have some success.

While bigger WRs like Mike Williams getting injured rolling out of bed. [Reply]

In the old days, somebody like Lester Hayes or Kevin Ross would demolish Worthy.
But that's not how the game is played anymore.
And nobody's better than Andy Reid at creating a free release for a WR. [Reply]
