2024 Guide: What Ourlads’ NFL Scouting Services said about XAVIER WORTHY:
Texas | HT: 5112 | WT: 165 | 40 time: 4.21 | Arm: 3118 | Hand: 0834 | Wing: 7414
Junior entry, three-year starter. All-Big 12 all three seasons, first team in 2023 and 2021. All-America in 2023. Exploded onto the national scene as a true freshman in 2021 after having his senior season of high school canceled due to Covid in 2020, earning the Big 12 Offensive Freshman of the Year Award and re-writing the program’s receiving records for first year players. Worthy’s game is built on the most sought-after trait in the game, speed. He can move quicker and faster than most players in the league and he pairs it with toughness and intelligence. How an offensive scheme can hide his lack of size and physical presence will largely determine whether or not he can be a true number one, or a very good two. Either way, he is going to make a passing game more explosive. Fast in every sense of the word and it shows up all over the field. Varying releases off the line to create initial separation and hide some of his size shortcomings. Accelerates to his top speed in an instant but can stop on a dime at any point. Change of direction is a real weapon. Tracks the deep ball over his shoulder with precision and control. Does not shy from contact. A true fighter in every sense of the word. Tough and hard-nosed. Can play from the slot and out wide. Nearly off the charts when it comes to size and presence. Will have a hard time shaking off tacklers at that weight. Will not get to the ball clean in traffic. Gets pushed around. Hands are inconsistent, will drop some easy ones.
2023 Stats: 75-1014, 13.5 ypr, 5 TD, 22-371 PR, 16.9 avg, 1 TD. OSR:1/33. Draft projection: 1st/2nd round
