KANSAS City received a much-needed boost ahead of facing an AFC rival this week.

The Chiefs host the Baltimore Ravens in a clash of struggling teams expected to be Super Bowl contenders.

The losing team at Arrowhead Stadium faces the prospect of falling to 1-3.

Kansas City is a minor underdog for the game despite being at home.

But one of their key weapons will be back on the field, coach Andy Reid confirmed.

Wide receiver Xavier Worthy has been out since suffering an injury in the season-opener.

Worthy hurt his shoulder when he ran into teammate Travis Kelce in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

He was forced out of the rest of the defeat against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Worthy also missed the Week 2 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles and the Week 3 win at the New York Giants.

But coach Reid confirmed Friday that he’ll be back this Sunday.

“Listen, you’ve got to be healthy enough to go play,” Reid said.

“I mean, we’re not gonna put him out there if he’s not healthy enough to go play and where he feels comfortable.

“He feels good, and then the other team, they’re gonna play hard no matter what, whether you have a shoulder injury or not.

“They’re gonna try to knock you around a little bit.

“That’s why you want to make sure you’re in the right frame of mind to go do it and physically OK.”

Worthy was a full participant in practice this week.

“It was an upper-body injury,” Reid added.

“So he’s been able to keep himself in good shape and ready to go.

“He looked good, what we asked him to do there.”

Kansas City had 13 players on the injury report including Patrick Mahomes with a wrist issue.

But only two players were limited in Friday practice – defensive end Michael Danna and cornerback Kristian Fulton.

Defensive end Ashton Gillotte did not practice Friday.

The Chiefs are still without wide receiver Rashee Rice, who was handed a six-game suspension at the start of the season.
