One needn't look very hard to see shades of Rice's 2023 ascent in Worthy's efforts last year as his role grew as the season wore on, culminating in five TDs over his final five games, including three in the playoffs and two in the Super Bowl. Flanked by veterans like Hopkins and Smith-Schuster, Worthy moved at a different speed. Even with a lack of complementary threats, defenses had trouble checking the then-rookie, who did a lot of his damage on passes near the line of scrimmage where the Chiefs simply let his athleticism win out.
Adding the playmaking ability of Rice and a healthy Brown to Worthy should only serve to make last year's first-round pick even more dangerous. We've already seen what he's capable of just via the coaching staff finding ways to get him the ball in space, but Reid's proclamation that KC will be more aggressive with the vertical passing game in 2025 could be a further boon for Worthy, whose speed must be accounted for on every snap.
Although he doesn't feel quite as "safe" of a selection as Rice, at least in terms of on-field production, Worthy belongs in that same low-end WR2 or high-end WR3 category. If the Chiefs succeed in getting that offense more dynamic, it wouldn't be out of the question for Kansas City to produce more than one 1,000-yard receiver in 2025.

Xavier Worthy has a chance to play in Week 2? WR deemed day-to-day with shoulder injury By: Doug Orth | Mon Sep 8, 11:30 pm

| | WR Xavier Worthy is considered day to day as he continues to rehab his shoulder, head coach Andy Reid told reporters Monday. Worthy suffered the injury early in Kansas City's season-opening loss to the Chargers in Brazil. (Around the NFL)
FFToday's Take: There is some thought that Worthy may be able to wear a brace and play through his dislocated shoulder, but that seems highly unlikely given the amount of pain he was in during Friday's loss. Even if he did play, how effective could he be expected to be on routes over the middle of the field? Marquise Brown earned 16 targets in the opener and figures to be the No. 1 target in this offense until Rashee Rice (suspension) returns. Don't be afraid to spend 20 percent or more of your FAAB if he somehow did not get drafted in your league and fire him up as a high-upside WR3 if you already have him.

| Suspension likely coming for WR Rashee Rice Gets five years probation and 30 days of jail time By: Mike Krueger | Thu Jul 17, 12:02 pm

| | ESPN sources: A Dallas County judge just sentenced Chiefs WR Rashee Rice to five years probation and 30 days of jail time that can be served during those five years stemming for his role in a multi-car crash in Dallas during the 2024 offseason.
Now that the judge has ruled, the NFL can expedite its disciplinary process and Rice is likely to receive a multi-game suspension. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Most in the fantasy football community have been assuming zero games missed for the upcoming season. That's about to change. A four-game suspension wouldn't be shocking but we'll wait for the league to make it's ruling. For now, Rice's value will decline while we'll get a slight bump for Marquise Brown, Xavier Worthy and perhaps JuJu Smith-Schuster.
