The Kansas City Chiefs and their fans are very excited about rookie wide receiver Xavier Worthy.
The Texas product broke the NFL Combine record for the fastest 40-yard dash in the history of the event this past March, and the Chiefs traded up in the first round of the draft in order to get him.
He's already dazzled in training camp, catching a long bomb from Patrick Mahomes in the end zone despite good coverage, and his speed has been very evident when he has the ball in his hands.
However, the rookie had his first big "Welcome to the NFL" moment on Wednesday. During seven-on-sevens, Worthy was jammed up in press coverage, which sent him stumbling inside up the field. He was then leveled by a Chiefs linebacker, which sent him flying to the ground in the same direction in which he came.

It's not the most promising thing to watch if you're a Chiefs fan, but it is admittedly very funny and worth the 10 seconds.
