Chiefs rookie Xavier Worthy says team thrives playing in villain role: 'Everybody just wants us to lose'

James Jones explains why the Pittsburgh Steelers are a bigger threat to the Kansas City Chiefs than the Buffalo Bills.

Kansas City Chiefs rookie receiver Xavier Worthy knows it is his job at the end of the day, but he is having a lot of fun playing with his team each week. 

How could he not be happy when he is 12-1 to start off his first season in the NFL. Not many rookies get that luxury.

Worthy, who broke the NFL Scouting Combine 40-yard dash record back in April, said he hears the outside noise, especially those wanting the Chiefs to lose each week. 

"I feel like everybody just wants us to lose," Worthy told Fox News Digital after highlighting the fun he had with the DICKS Holiday Shopping Sprint to impact kids in the Kansas City area for the holidays.

The Chiefs are a dynasty, and Worthy entered the fray right after they defeated the San Francisco 49ers in overtime to collect back-to-back Vince Lombardi trophies.
