Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid provided the much-anticipated update to the media on Monday about ‘Hollywood’ Brown’s injury status. The newly signed Chiefs wide receiver spent time in the hospital early after he left Saturday’s preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

“Hollywood (Brown), they were able to get the joint back into place without surgery, which is a positive,” said Reid. “Then we’ll just see how the recovery is back in Kansas City now. He stayed over in Jacksonville until they got that thing situated.”

Brown suffered a sternoclavicular joint dislocation during his lone series with the first team to start the game, drawing comparisons to Tyreek Hill’s injury in 2019 while he was a member of the Chiefs. The positive result of not needing surgery is a sigh of relief as Reid would go on to discuss plans without the veteran receiver for the immediate future.

“The positive there is that he’s going to be back, without him in there. His experience and in that in the league, but we’ve also got other guys who can step in and play well, we will be okay there,” said Reid. “It’s just we’re pulling for him to get back on. We’ll see how that goes.”

Brown is unlikely to appear again in the preseason and will be evaluated before the Chiefs start the regular season on September 5th against his former team, the Baltimore Ravens.

Andy Reid gives grim update after ‘Hollywood’ Brown injury vs. Jaguars

The Kansas City Chiefs lost more than their preseason opener on Saturday to the Jacksonville Jaguars as head coach Andy Reid confirmed one of their fears from the exhibition.

Reid addressed the media after the game in Jacksonville, providing an update on Marquise ‘Hollywood’ Brown’s health status.

“Hollywood Brown has that same thing that Tyreek (Hill) had down here, actually, the sternoclavicular joint dislocation,” said Reid. “They’ve taken him to the hospital; they’ll check him out; they’re working on that as we speak.”

Brown sustained the shoulder injury in the first quarter of Saturday night’s 26-13 loss in Jacksonville. He was initially ruled as questionable to return to the game by the Chiefs staff, but he was likely to sit out following the opening series with the rest of the starters.

The Chiefs lost then-wide receiver Tyreek Hill to the same diagnosed shoulder injury for four games in 2019 after he went down to the Jaguars in the regular season opener. Kansas City would eventually win the Super Bowl that season for the first time in 50 years, with Hill still serving as an essential contributor when he returned from the injury.

There are signs of optimism that Brown won’t miss much time in the regular season since it’s still August, but it is far too early to assume his recovery timetable.

Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy’s childhood mentor explains significance of his jersey number

#Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy’s childhood mentor explains the significance of his jersey number.

The Kansas City Chiefs added more speed to their receivers room following the NFL Draft with the selection of Texas Longhorns standout Xavier Worthy. The 40-yard dash scouting combine record holder will be expected to make an impact in his rookie season, and he honed his skills early as a youth with a dedicated mentor.

Chiefs Wire’s Ed Easton Jr. sat down with Worthy’s high school coach Chris Maxey, to discuss the importance of the Texas standout’s jersey number, his influence on the future, and how his humble personality will fit in with the Kansas City community.

“Well, he always liked it,” Maxey said of Worthy’s inclination to wear the No. 1 jersey. “At first, he couldn’t get it, so I always told him that if he were that number one when you walk on the field, they’re gonna look at you no matter if you did bad, short or tall; they [are] all going to wonder why you got that number one, some unique number. He always held the standard, you want to be number one when you wear it, you got to fill the shoes, and he takes on the challenge. He continued to wear it and continued to show out.”

Maxey continues to work with youth athletes at Central East High School in Fresno, California. He uses Worthy’s journey as a positive example of what can happen if you work hard and pursue your goals.

“I’d say trust the process and be humble,” Maxey explained. “There’s gonna be good days and bad days. You know, [that is] part of the sport. I’m sorry to say there are injury times; there are things you heard and you can’t do. Even then, you have to trust the process. He went through a time where he got a little injury hiccups. He trusts the process; history repeats itself.

“I tell everybody to stop trying to rewrite the weird, rewrite the story, take the good with the bad, and learn from the good. Also, learn from the bad. Be humble, and always trust the process. Be patient, don’t try to cut corners, you try to cut corners, it’s going to bite you. Overall, just trust the process and be consistent. Don’t think you’re bigger than anybody.”

Worthy’s selection as the Chiefs’ first-round pick is a great honor, but Maxey feels his personality will shine in the Kansas City community.

“[He is a] great kid, humble, he’s gonna put in work, he’s gonna bring a lot to the organization,” Maxey said. “He gifted me [a] 98-inch TCL TV, someone who is just part of his story. He’s a very loving, caring person. He’s a very humble, hardworking kid, someone that I think the Chiefs organization will love for a long time; he’s going to bring a lot to the team.

“He’s going to bring a lot of hard work, so whatever the coach is asking him, the staff, the organization, he’s going to be there and put both feet forward; he’s not going to be one foot in, one foot out, throughout the community… In the locker room, [he] is going to be someone that’s going to be all in. He’s a very high-character kid. So he won’t be someone who will distract the organization. [He] is going to be a hard worker and be a Chief, and it’s all about the Chiefs.”

Worthy will have plenty of eyes on him alongside veteran Marquise “Hollywood” Brown as a new speedy option who can help Patrick Mahomes do damage down the field.
