Travis Kelce Addresses Xavier Worthy's Injury After Mid-Game Collison
Travis Kelce expressed accountability for the injury to receiver Xavier Worthy during a crucial play, emphasizing the impact on team dynamics and Worthy's significant role.
- On Wednesday, Travis Kelce said he is taking full blame for the play that injured Xavier Worthy in the Kansas City Chiefs' season opener in Sao Paolo, Brazil, adding `I just got to be better`.
- During the third snap of the Chiefs' first possession in Sao Paolo, Xavier Worthy collided with Travis Kelce while running a crossing route against Chargers' coverage, suffering a right-shoulder injury that forced him out.
- Kelce said `I owe my guy big time, man` and acknowledged he ran into Worthy, who is now 'day to day' with no surgery planned, according to Andy Reid.
- Following the loss, Kansas City must navigate a depleted receiver room because with Worthy hurt and Rashee Rice suspended, the Chiefs likely miss their top two wideouts next month and a half.
- Coaches say Xavier Worthy is rehabbing his shoulder and could return this season with a brace, while Kansas City relies on JuJu Smith‑Schuster and Tyquan Thornton as Travis Kelce aims to regain peak form in his 13th NFL season.
