The Chiefs traded No. 32 to the Buffalo Bills to land Worthy and Mahomes is excited about the prospect of having another speedster to throw to.
The KC QB posted a smiley face wearing sunglasses emoji as well as a sprinter emoji.
Fans were congratulating the Chiefs for making the move and dreaming of Mahomes teaming up with the fastest player in NFL history.
Worthy set an NFL Combine record in March by running the 40-yard dash in 4.21 seconds.
He broke the record of John Ross – who was drafted one spot ahead of Mahomes in 2017.
The Chiefs are gearing up for a tripleheader next season and fans believe adding a receiver like Worthy puts them in pole position for another Super Bowl.
“The rest of the NFL sees the Chiefs becoming the fastest player ever,” one fan said.
“Revolutionary speed is coming to the kingdom,” added another.
Prior to the NFL Draft, Worthy said he would be the “perfect” player for the Chiefs.
“Just like Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs improvise and use you. They had Tyreek Hill,” Worthy said.
“The way they used it, I feel like it would be a perfect fit for me..“
The Chiefs’ play space has been seen as a weakness since Hill was traded to the Dolphins in 2022.
Kadarius Toney made a number of costly mistakes last season while Marquez Valdes-Scantling, who scored the game-winning touchdown in Super Bowl LVIII, was released.
Add in the off-field issues with Rashee Rice and it was clear that Andy Reid’s team needed a new pass catcher.
