Chiefs rookie wide receiver Xavier Worthy recently recounted an unusual incident from his draft night during an appearance on the Rich Eisen Show. Worthy described how, just hours before learning he would be joining the Kansas City Chiefs, he received a call from the Indianapolis Colts while they were on the clock for the 15th overall pick. He was left confused and surprised when the Colts abruptly hung up after briefly introducing themselves. Worthy recalled the moment vividly, noting the abrupt end to the call without any further explanation.

Despite the bizarre nature of the call, Worthy was adamant that it was not a mere disconnection. He expressed certainty that the call was intentionally cut off, stating, “I’m positive.” This assertion raised eyebrows, as it seemed difficult to determine whether it was a purposeful action or a technical glitch. However, Worthy maintained his position, emphasizing that the experience was strange but did not leave him with any resentment towards the Colts.

In a twist of fate, Worthy went on to express his satisfaction with his eventual landing spot in Kansas City, even though he had not anticipated the move. He mentioned that he had not been aware of the Chiefs’ interest in him during the draft process. Worthy believed that he would be going to the Buffalo Bills, who originally owned the 28th pick in the draft when he received a call from an unknown number. Instead, it was Chiefs General Manager Brett Veach informing him of the team’s trade-up to select him.

Worthy’s unexpected journey to the Chiefs highlights the unpredictable nature of the NFL draft, where emotions can swing from anticipation to confusion in moments. The rookie receiver’s story serves as a reminder of the complexities and surprises that can occur during this significant event in a player’s career. His experience resonates with the stories of many other players who have faced similar uncertainties on draft day.

Ultimately, Worthy expressed excitement about joining the Chiefs and being part of a team with a strong tradition and talented roster. His positive attitude and adaptability in the face of a strange draft night experience reflect his readiness to embrace the challenges ahead in his professional career.
