Forget the trade talks and Tyreek Hill’s blazing speed in Miami—Chiefs fans just witnessed a glimpse of the future, and it came strapped to a rocket! A video circulating on Twitter shows rookie wide receiver Xavier Worthy hauling in a sizzling 60-yard BOMB from none other than Patrick Mahomes during the Chiefs’ preseason drills.

This connection has the NFL buzzing, with the Cleveland Browns’ Muse fan page already calling him the “Next Tyreek Hill.” It’s a bold claim, yep—but Worthy and Mahomes are already showing some serious rapport. 

Kansas City’s star WR, Worthy, was sidelined for most of the offseason due to a hamstring injury. But that didn’t stop QB Mahomes from forging a bond with his new weapon. During their initial on-field drills, the Chiefs’ QB unleashed a deep pass, and Worthy, the fastest 40-yard dasher (4.21!) ever recorded at the combine, snatched it like a hawk.

The 21-year-old’s early chemistry with Mahomes is lighting up the scene, and he’s set to be a game-changer this season. Drafted 27th overall, he brings a deep threat the Chiefs haven’t had since Hill’s departure. With veterans like Travis Kelce and Rashee Rice, Worthy’s speed will be a nightmare for defenses.  

HC Andy Reid openly discussed wanting to stretch the field more, and there’s no one on the roster, maybe even the entire league, who can do that quite like Worthy. Patrick Mahomes himself told Adam Teicher on ESPN, “There’s no easing [him in].” 

The Chiefs’ WR Xavier Worthy’s raw talent and Mahomes’ pinpoint accuracy could be a smooth recipe for explosive plays this year.

Three straight Lombardi trophies? Never been done. Not by Brady and Belichick’s Patriots dynasty, not by anyone. The pressure’s on for Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs, but instead of laser-focusing on a historic fourth ring, Mahomes seems determined to fix the 2023 offensive woes.

“Obviously, the end result was awesome,” the 28-year-old QB said of winning the Super Bowl in Feb. “But there’s a lingering bad taste in our mouths. We weren’t the team we wanted to be all year. It just wasn’t fun.” Remember the Chiefs’ constant grind in 2023? Mahomes does. “We have a lot of returning players and they know how it feels,” he said.
