Chiefs vs. Steelers: Xavier Worthy scores a touchdown on KC’s first drive

Patrick Mahomes got in sync with rookie wide receiver Xavier Worthy on Kansas City Chiefs‘ first drive of their Week 17 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Christmas Day.

After a quick three-and-out for the Steelers, Mahomes marched Kansas City’s offense down the field and eventually found himself in the red zone.

On second and four inside Pittsburgh’s ten-yard line, Worthy lined up as a running back and caught a simple swing pass from Mahomes that resulted in an easy touchdown for the first-year wideout.

Take a look at this video of Worthy’s score, which was posted on Twitter by the Chiefs’ official account:

Although there is plenty of time left in Wednesday’s game, Worthy’s nifty first-quarter touchdown gave Kansas City an early lead that could prove crucial in the Chiefs’ bid to clinch the AFC’s No. 1 playoff seed with a win over Pittsburgh.

Tune in to see if Worthy can continue to assert himself against the Steelers at Acrisure Stadium this afternoon.
