Since those two players have to play in the slot, it forces Worthy to handle more outside reps. Can he take a step there to be more viable? Or do the Chiefs decide to use Worthy more in the slot and live with the consequences elsewhere?

Rice and Kelce's slot usage forces Worthy outside, limiting his viability.

Worthy's role in the offense is constrained by the presence of Rice and Kelce, both of whom must play in the slot. This forces Worthy to handle more outside reps, where his ability to be viable is questionable. The source questions whether Worthy can take a step on the outside or if the Chiefs will use him more in the slot and accept the consequences elsewhere, noting it feels hard for Worthy to have a productive role with the current personnel.
