Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy has been taken into custody in Williamson County, Texas, following a serious domestic violence allegation.
Authorities confirm that Worthy was arrested Friday night on suspicion of domestic assault, specifically for allegedly attacking a family or household member and obstructing their breathing… an offense that suggests choking.
As of now, Worthy remains behind bars in Williamson County Jail without bail, awaiting a court appearance scheduled for later today. The charge he faces is a third-degree felony, carrying severe legal consequences if convicted.
Details surrounding the incident are still emerging, and it remains unclear what led to the arrest. Worthy, who made a significant impact in Super Bowl LIX with eight receptions for 157 yards and two touchdowns in the Chiefs’ 22–40 loss, now finds himself in the midst of a legal battle that could impact his NFL career.
The Kansas City Chiefs and local law enforcement have yet to issue any official statements regarding the situation.
