The Kansas City Chiefs have a new number-one target for quarterback Patrick Mahomes after they decided to take former University of Texas Longhorns receiver Xavier Worthy with the 28th pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Worthy isn’t the only one in his family garnering attention after he was drafted by the Chiefs. His mother, Nicky Jones, is going viral after posting to X to celebrate her son’s draft. She captioned the post “My son is a Kansas City Cheif!” and added a picture of herself with all three of her kids.
Fans can’t get over how well Jones has aged. Most of the comments are praising the receiver’s mother’s phenomenal looks, with replies like “No way you are old enough to be his mama” and “Candidate for the hottest mom award.”
Could Xavier Worthy Save The Chiefs Receiving Corps?
Worthy’s mom has gone viral more than once, with some other posts going viral during Worthy’s 2023 college season. One in particular, captioned “What a journey…” saw fans react the same way to the mother of three allowing her son to join the Longhorns.
The post sparked many positive reactions, with people commenting, “I wish you all the best, mama,” and another fan saying, “Thank you for sharing your son with us the past three years.” For reference, the receiver joined the club back in 2021 playing the last three seasons in Texas.
Worthy’s performance was well worth a round-one pick. In addition to 1,014 yards and 5 touchdowns with the Longhorns in 2023, he was also clocked in at 4.21 seconds during the 40-yard dash, which is an NFL combine record.
We’re definitely looking forward to seeing more of Worthy and his mom on game days and beyond in Kansas City!
