    Is Chiefs Rookie Xavier Worthy a Viable Fantasy Football Option?

    By Jonah Morgan,

    The NFL season is starting soon, which means fantasy football will be starting with it, so teams are starting to be drafted and finalized.

    The Kansas City Chiefs are coming into the season as the team to beat, having won the last two Super Bowls, and have three rings in the last five seasons. As a result, fantasy players will look to them for some possible players to draft.

    One of the more intriguing players on the team is rookie wide receiver Xavier Worthy, as he could be a huge part of the Chiefs' offense this season. With Marquise Brown sidelined with an injury, he could be primed to have a fast start to the season, and that could turn into a monster rookie year.

    Patrick Mahomes is the best quarterback of this generation, and has been able to get the job done no matter what his weapons look like. If you give him one of the fastest receivers the NFL has ever seen, then that receiver should automatically be a guy who people draft in fantasy.

    Tyreek Hill was incredible with Mahomes and the Chiefs for several seasons, and Worthy will be looking to try and replicate the success he had, both on the field and in fantasy.
