- 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

If I'm not mistaken (not a big college football guy because...well, Kansas) but I believe Texas runs a similar offense to the Chiefs.
Considering how quickly Worthy picked that up as a true freshman the signs point to yes [Reply]

Rice was tied for second most catches in the Lions game with 3. Andy has evolved a lot since he arrived here. I think he will have some plays to get him worked into the game. [Reply]

Andy also started two rookie lineman (Trey and Creed), which he NEVER EVER did before. Seems like if you're good enough to play, you're gonna play. [Reply]

It was three really as Niang was a rookie too in reality. [Reply]
It's nice and all that Worthy is fast, but its his ability to track the ball in the air is what I'm most excited about. That's what made Tyreek special. You could throw up the ball and he would go get it. [Reply]
But in terms of football, the Hamstring strain sucks. He's just getting further behind the 8 ball. Needs to be up and going by camp. In the grand scheme, it isn't a big deal, but missing OTA's and such as a rookie isn't ideal. [Reply]
