Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy struggled again in the loss to the Broncos. He went 3-25-0 on 5 targets, outproduced by Hollywood Brown who went 4-40-0. Worthy hasn’t finished higher than PPR WR20 in any week and hasn’t topped WR40 in any week since Rashee Rice returned from suspension. Worthy simply isn’t startable in fantasy anymore.
The one positive for Worthy is that he remains on the field for the whole game. He played 53 snaps, tied with Rice for the most by a Chiefs’ WR. His 36 routes led the WR unit. But being outproduced by Brown, who only played 30 snaps, looks even worse with Worthy’s snap rate.
The Chiefs offense struggled against a stout Broncos defense, only scoring 19 points. But Worthy hasn’t performed again easier recent defenses like the Bills, Raiders, and Commanders.
Worthy should be benched until further notice. In terms of outright cutting him, that is worthwhile in shallow leagues. But most teams should keep Worthy around (for now) in case the Chiefs’ offense gets supercharged down the stretch.
If Worthy doesn’t perform in the next two positive match-ups against the Colts and Cowboys, then he becomes a potential cut in every league type.
