Patrick Mahomes’ latest addition sends a clear message to Arch Manning following standout performances for Texas.
While Xavier Worthy is focused on helping the Kansas City Chiefs remain in Super Bowl contention, he still has a deep connection to Texas football. Despite his busy NFL schedule, Worthy continues to watch the Texas Longhorns play.
This past weekend, he was particularly interested in their game against the Mississippi State Bulldogs in an SEC matchup. It wasn’t just the win that caught his eye; it was the impressive performance by Arch Manning, who stepped in as quarterback for Texas. The redshirt freshman, regarded as one of the top prospects, displayed remarkable poise and skill, earning praise from experienced players like Worthy.
Worthy, who played for the Longhorns before shining in Kansas City, expressed his admiration for Manning’s performance on social media. He emphasized how Manning’s playmaking skills stood out in a game where the Longhorns dominated Mississippi State from beginning to end.
As Texas celebrated their victory, Worthy also had a notable weekend. In the Chiefs’ Week 4 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, he emerged as a key asset for Patrick Mahomes, catching three of four targets, including an impressive 54-yard touchdown that highlighted his speed and route-running skills.
It’s evident that as Worthy adapts to the NFL, his support for the Longhorns remains strong. His endorsement of Manning adds to the excitement for Texas fans, eager to see how far the young quarterback can lead the team.
