From the article

Worthy has played well in the last two games. It was definitely encouraging to see Worthy reel in seven passes for 73 yards against the Chargers. However, he also finished the game with a 4.3-yard average depth of target (ADoT). That is not the player he was drafted to be.

Positive signalUsage

Worthy's 7-catch, 73-yard game shows production but lacks the vertical role he was drafted for.

Worthy has played well in the last two games, reeling in seven passes for 73 yards against the Chargers. However, he finished with a 4.3-yard average depth of target (ADoT), indicating he is operating in Rice's catch-and-run role rather than the vertical element he was drafted to provide. The source notes Worthy can provide much of Rice's production if Rice leaves in free agency, and Worthy will likely enter his own contract season in 2027.
