Well, while Jones’ profile looks impressive enough, Xavier Worthy also does not fall behind. Playing as a wide receiver for the Texas Longhorns, Worthy bagged the First Team All-Big 12 twice in 2021 and 2023 respectively. He also was awarded the Big 12 Offensive Freshman of the Year in 2021. But his biggest achievement came recently when he attempted a 40-yard dash. In a surprising turn of events, Worthy toppled Usain Bolt’s record. He ran a 40m dash clocking just 4.21s. This was just under what Bolt, the fastest man on the planet, boasts of. The Jamaican’s 40m dash record stood at 4.22s, which now remains shattered.
Well, both Worthy and Jones are starting an entirely new chapter in their lives. And fans would have nothing less than good wishes for the new power couple.
