Yahoo Fantasy Football on Xavier Worthy
From the article
Straight-up, Worthy just isn't very good. His slight frame and unwillingness to battle for yards after the catch or throw contact at the catch point really limit his usefulness...He also had a drop on a crossing route that made Patrick Mahomes turn into a Surrender Cobra.
STACKED’s take
Worthy's poor athleticism translation and drops make him unreliable despite target volume.
Worthy just isn't very good; his slight frame and unwillingness to battle for yards after catch or throw contact at catch point limit usefulness. Despite 40 record, Worthy rarely looks like fastest player on field—a slot go ball down sideline was easily nuked by 220-pound S/LB Nick Emmanwori, and he chopped up feet on out route against CB Devon Witherspoon. He had drop on crossing route that made Mahomes turn into Surrender Cobra. Without couple shallow sit routes and screens, Worthy would've gone catchless against Seahawks even without Rashee Rice and Tyquan Thornton. Worthy has been WR41, WR27, and WR65 in half PPR with Rice sidelined recently on WR48 usage and 23% target share.
