Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy just got the worst welcome to his new career.
Worthy had his car stolen Wednesday night.
Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio revealed that the Kansas City Chiefs confirmed it was stolen from Worthy’s apartment complex overnight.
There was no carjacking, and no one was hurt, according to Florio. He mentioned that one source believes it was carried out by a bunch of professional criminals who “knew exactly what they were doing.”
No one was injured during the theft. “The car was simply stolen,” Florio wrote.
Kansas City selected Worthy in the first round — 28th overall — in April’s Draft.

Despite his size and historical data showing that there are very few players who were the same size as him and had long, successful careers in the NFL, Xavier Worthy believes he has what it takes to be an outlier.
“I weighed in at 169 [pounds],” Worthy said during his press conference at rookie minicamp on May 4. “I don’t think I took big hits, I delivered them. I feel like it’s not going to be a problem. I feel like just understanding your strengths and your weaknesses, I feel like that’s the big thing in the league. Don’t, obviously, don’t try to go hit a 250-pound linebacker. Just understanding your strengths, like I said. D-Jack (DeSean Jackson) came into the league at 169 and understood his strengths, so just using your strengths to your strength.”
During his final season at Texas, Worthy recorded 75 receptions, 1,014 yards, and five touchdowns, according to Sports Reference.
