For a second straight season, the Kansas City Chiefs’ wide receivers are being led by a rookie. First-year speedster Xavier Worthy’s 638 receiving yards rank second behind the team’s legendary tight end Travis Kelce.
On Saturday, the rookie will make his postseason debut as the Chiefs play the Houston Texans on GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium. While it will be the biggest moment of his young career, Worthy is working hard to keep it from overwhelming him.
“[I’m] just treating it like every other game,” he explained to media members on Tuesday. “[There are] a lot of vets in the room, so they kind of just make it easy on me — just taking it week-by-week and treating it like a regular game.
