AUSTIN, Texas — Kansas City Chiefs rookie Xavier Worthy has been arrested on a felony domestic violence charge, the second high-profile wide receiver from the reigning AFC champions to be facing serious legal trouble in Texas in less than a year.
Williamson County online jail records Saturday showed that Worthy was arrested Friday by deputies and held in the county jail on a charge of assault on a family or household member in which their breath was impeded, or choking in common terms.
Williamson County includes parts of Austin, where Worthy played college football at the University of Texas.
