Fortunately, the latest report has some good news for Chiefs Kingdom as K.C. gets ready for a road game in Jacksonville.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\">The Chiefs are set to face the Jaguars at EverBank Stadium on <em>Monday Night Football<\/em> to close out Week 5 in the NFL. Heading into the game, Worthy was listed as a late addition on the team&#8217;s injury report with a questionable designation with both shoulder and ankle injuries. Last-second changes to an injured list are never good, so the concern for Worthy and the state of the offense was clear heading into game day.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\">According to NFL reporter Ian Rapoport, the listing might have been precautionary more than anything. Speaking on <em>Good Morning Football<\/em>, Rapoport had a positive update for Chiefs fans.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"inline-text-3\">The Chiefs and Jaguars will play on Monday Night Football to close out Week 5 in the NFL.<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.actionnetwork.com\/blog\/2025\/10\/Chiefs-vs-Jags.png\" alt=\"Kansas City Chiefs vs Jacksonville Jaguars Prediction, Pick, Odds -- NFL  Monday Night Football 10\/6\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-4\">&#8220;My understanding is [Worthy] kinda just turned his ankle a little bit, woke up swollen, put it on the report. He is fine. He is expected to go. More of a precaution than anything else,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\">While the situation hasn&#8217;t fully resolved, Rapoport&#8217;s report echoes other encouraging rumors that the Chiefs&#8217; former first-round pick might be able to go after such an exciting return to the field in Week 4. The Chiefs offense found its catalyst a week ago when Worthy rejoined his teammates in a dominant win over the Baltimore Ravens. It was the sort of jolt that Patrick Mahomes and company had been waiting for after trying to force things offensively with limited personnel.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\">Worthy led the team in both receiving and rushing yards in Week 4 with 121 yards from scrimmage total, and his presence on the field opens everything else up for the Chiefs. Given that the Jaguars are putting together a nice 3-1 record so far with a stout defense that insists on taking the ball away, Worthy will be a major factor if available.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\">The Chiefs originally lost Worthy to start the season with a torn labrum after an accidental collision with Travis Kelce forced him to sit out Week 1 from the first offensive series of the season. Worthy missed both Weeks 2 and 3 before returning against the Ravens.<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>That so much attention is being paid to Xavier Worthy&#8217;s availability for Week 5 speaks to his importance to the Kansas City Chiefs&#8217; plans.
