The Kansas City Chiefs enter Week 3 facing a familiar challenge: the absence of a key offensive weapon. Xavier Worthy, the WR who flashed as a playmaker last season, will sit out Sunday’s game against the New York Giants .

Worthy’s return was expected after limited practice reps, but the team officially ruled him out, forcing the Chiefs to adjust on the fly again. And this setback arrives while the Chiefs’ offense is still trying to find its footing under pressure.

As the Chiefs’ official X account shared the update, “We have activated Practice Squad player CB Kevin Knowles via Standard Elevation. WR Xavier Worthy has now been ruled out for Sunday night’s game (shoulder). He will not travel with the team.”
