Reacting to Worthy’s draft selection, Coach Sarkisian expressed his enthusiasm for the young athlete’s future in the NFL. “Xavier is a remarkable talent, and I couldn’t be happier for him,” Sarkisian stated. “His dedication, work ethic, and raw talent make him a perfect fit for the Kansas City Chiefs. I have no doubt that he will thrive in their offensive system.”
Sarkisian’s confidence in Worthy’s abilities is shared by many within the football community. With the Chiefs known for their high-octane offense led by star quarterback Patrick Mahomes, Worthy’s skill set adds another dimension to an already potent arsenal of weapons.
The selection of Worthy marks another milestone in the ongoing collaboration between the Texas Longhorns and the NFL. Under Sarkisian’s leadership, the Longhorns have continued to produce top-tier talent, with several players making significant impacts at the professional level.
As Worthy embarks on this new chapter in his football journey, all eyes will be on him as he looks to make his mark in the NFL and contribute to the Kansas City Chiefs’ pursuit of championship glory. With the support of Coach Sarkisian and the lessons learned at Texas, Worthy is poised to make waves in the league for years to come.
