With the Chiefs looking to counter the receiving options that plagued their offense through 2023/24, and with the uncertainty surrounding the future of Rashee Rice and his investigation for a crash in Dallas, it could be Worthy who is their savior and Mahomes is calling for him to hit the ground running.
“There’s no easing,” Mahomes told press, as per Charles Goldman.
“He’s going to have to be ready to go. There’s a lot of competition.
“Xavier got a lot of mental work in these last few weeks he had during OTAs and minicamp, but it’s time to go now.
Y’all saw Rashee (Rice) last year and the ‘throwing up days’ he had.
“We’re going to push you to the limit to get yourself ready to go for the season.
That’s not just him. That’s everybody.”
But Mahomes appears to be focusing on making sure the offense is working as it should, rather than solely focusing on getting his hands on what would be the fourth ring of his career already, and he is keen to avoid the frustrations the team experienced in 2023.
“Obviously, the end result was awesome,” Mahomes said of winning the Super Bowl in February.
“But I think a lot of us still have a weird feeling in our mouth.
We really didn’t play football the way we wanted to play all year long.
