NFL Draft 2024 Rumors: Xavier Worthy 'Could Go Higher Than People Expect' in Round 1

Texas wide receiver Xavier Worthy could "go higher than people than expect" when the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft begins April 25, ESPN's Jeremy Fowler said Saturday on SportsCenter.

"The fastest player in the draft, blew out the combine; blazing speed," Fowler said. "When I ask teams who they think will be the fourth receiver taken after [Rome Odunze, Marvin Harrison Jr. and Malik Nabers], he's the name that comes up most often.

"And there are others, like LSU's Brian Thomas Jr. who will be in the mix there in the first round, but this is a player who could go higher than people expect.
