Georgetown, Texas – In a recent turn of events, authorities in Williamson County have decided not to move forward with pressing charges against Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver _Xavier Worthy_. This decision follows an incident that took place on Friday when Worthy was arrested and booked on a third-degree felony charge for assaulting a family or household member.
The case initially sparked concern among fans and onlookers, but Williamson County District Attorney Shawn Dick announced on Saturday evening that his office would not accept the case at this time. After reviewing the situation and hearing from multiple witnesses, Dick’s office clarified, “After further investigation by the Williamson County Sheriff’s Office and further discussion with a third-party witness, Mr. Worthy and his attorneys are fully cooperating with this investigation.”
Worthy’s attorneys have maintained their client’s innocence, stating, “We are working with law enforcement in Williamson County to ensure they have the benefit of the totality of circumstances that led to this allegation.” They allege that the complainant had been asked to leave Worthy’s residence after a personal conflict arose and subsequently made claims against him.
Despite being arrested, Worthy, who played his rookie season with the Chiefs after being drafted in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft, was still in custody as of Saturday evening. He is known for being the first Texas receiver to be selected in the first round since 2004.
The DA’s office indicated that it could take some time for the decision to process, suggesting that Worthy may soon be released. As the situation develops, more information will be shared to keep fans and the public informed.
