Worthy's shoulder injury and ankle issues limited his explosiveness in year two.

Suffered shoulder injury on the second play of the season last year (third play overall); Andy Reid subsequently reworked his role to emphasize screens and crossers, but the team ultimately decided he couldn't survive those play types and instead ran him on vertical routes down the field; did not look like the fastest player in the NFL when reviewed, which makes sense given multiple ankle injuries during the season and the shoulder injury limiting his explosiveness.

Source transcript excerpt
The second play of the game was a handoff to Xavier worthy. The third play is when he detonated his shoulder...he did not look like the fastest player in the NFL. And I think that makes sense. He had a bummed ankle multiple times in the season.
