Xavier Worthy arrested on felony assault charge in Texas

News summary

Xavier Worthy, a wide receiver for the Kansas City Chiefs, was arrested in Williamson County, Texas, on a third-degree felony charge of assault against a family or household member by impeding their breathing or circulation. Following his arrest, Worthy's legal team has stated that they believe the allegations are baseless and that Worthy has been the victim of extortion. The incident raises concerns for the Chiefs, who have faced off-field issues in recent years, and it is unclear how the NFL will respond, as Worthy could face a minimum six-game suspension under the league's Personal Conduct Policy. Worthy had a remarkable rookie season, contributing significantly to the Chiefs' Super Bowl run, which adds to the disappointment surrounding his arrest. As the Chiefs gather information about the situation, social media has reacted with a mix of humor and concern regarding the team's ongoing legal troubles with its receivers. The Chiefs have yet to make a definitive statement on their course of action regarding Worthy's arrest.
