Xavier Worthy Sits Out Thursday With Ankle, Shoulder Issues
Xavier Worthy (ankle/shoulder) missed Thursday's practice after being a full participant on Wednesday, raising mild concern ahead of Sunday's clash with the Detroit Lions. Worthy has played in just three games this season, totaling 11 catches for 125 yards after missing two weeks with a shoulder injury suffered in Week 1. The speedy second-year receiver also picked up an ankle issue prior to Monday night's game but still managed six receptions for 42 yards, suggesting the injury may not be overly serious. This absence could simply be a precautionary rest day for the rookie, though fantasy managers should monitor Friday's practice report closely for clarity on his Week 6 status. If Worthy can't go, Marquise Brown and Tyquan Thornton should continue to see heavy targets against Detroit's aggressive defense.
