Xavier Worthy, a wide receiver for the Kansas City Chiefs and former standout at the University of Texas, was arrested on Friday night in Williamson County, Texas, on charges of assaulting a family member by allegedly impeding breathing or circulation.

Worthy, 21, was selected 28th overall by the Chiefs in the 2024 NFL Draft. In his rookie season, he recorded 638 receiving yards and nine total touchdowns. Notably, during Super Bowl LIX, Worthy set a record by achieving 157 receiving yards—the most by a rookie receiver in Super Bowl history—and scored two touchdowns.

The Chiefs are currently gathering information regarding the incident. This development could have significant implications for Worthy's future with the team, especially considering his recent contributions and the Chiefs' aspirations for the upcoming season.
