Fast as hell... but 165 pounds? My word, that feels... fragile.



Did you watch Xavier play? He is a physical guy. He took shots from All-Americans and got extra yardage time & time again.

If people knock him for his size, the Chiefs will take him at the end of the first round and Mahomes will go berserk throwing bombs to Worthy for the next 7 years.

As a Chiefs fan I would not hate this. They need an OT but if he’s there gotta grab him. That frame looks like he could easily put on 15 lbs without losing explosiveness. All a pipe dream though. That much speed ain’t dropping to end of the 1st round lol

The NFL is different from college.

Trindon Holiday was a small guy who was fast as hell and successful in college (same weight as Worthy but shorter so he was more solid). In the pros he only contributed as a return man.

165 is miniscule, especially for a guy who's 5'11". The speed can't be overlooked, but I think most NFL teams will take guys who are still 4.4 but have decent size. I'd be shocked if any team risks a first round pick on him. We'll see though.

Good luck to the kid, but he would have been better served to be at 180 at the combine and run a tenth of a second slower.
