Chiefs receiver Xavier Worthy was arrested nearly a week ago, based on allegations of violence made by his former fiancé, Tia Jones. Worthy, through his lawyers, has strongly proclaimed his innocence — and he has insisted that Jones is the wrongdoer.
A new statement has been issued by attorneys Chip Lewis and Sam Bassett, on Worthy’s behalf, a day after Jones secured a temporary protective order against Worthy.
“Mr. Worthy again DENIES all allegations made in the civil filings yesterday, a desperate attempt after a protective order was not granted to the accuser in the criminal case,” the lawyers said.
