Bengals CB Cam Taylor-Britt downplayed the impact of Chiefs breakout rookie WR Xavier Worthy ahead of the teams' Week 2 tilt.
Kansas City Chiefs rookie wide receiver Xavier Worthy ran a record 4.21 40-yard dash at the combine and had a pair of touchdowns in his NFL debut last week against the Baltimore Ravens. Consider Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt unimpressed. 'Speed. That's about it. He can run straight, run jet sweeps and just run straight. He can't do too much else, so that's about it,' Taylor-Britt said on Wednesday when asked what Worthy brings to the table.
Worthy had just two receptions in the Chiefs' Week 1 win, but one of those was a 35-yard touchdown catch, and he also exploded through the Baltimore defense for a 21-yard score on the ground. The Chiefs traded up to the No. 28 pick in the 2024 NFL Draft to select Worthy, who played three seasons at Texas. On the other hand, Britt and the Bengals are coming off a Week 1 loss to the New England Patriots, who are widely expected to finish with one of the worst records in the NFL this season.
