Outlook Xavier Worthy

Xavier Worthy at Seattle — Rising target share offers solid flex appeal

Worthy has settled into an integral role in Kansas City's passing attack, commanding seven targets in back-to-back contests and hauling in all seven looks for 73 yards in his last outing. With fellow wideout Tyquan Thornton sidelined on injured reserve and Rashee Rice managing a nagging hamstring issue, Worthy continues to operate as an everyday starter for Patrick Mahomes.

Our weekly projections anticipate another solid showing, slating him for roughly 50 receiving yards on four catches (11.9 fantasy points). His fantasy start rate has rebounded toward 40% across leagues, reflecting growing trust in his weekly floor. While facing Seattle on the road in a tighter defensive matchup can be tricky, Worthy’s dependable volume keeps him firmly in play as a solid flex option.
