Twitter reacts to Xavier Worthy’s historic 40-yard dash

Users on Twitter were stunned by Xavier Worthy’s record-setting 40-yard dash at the 2024 NFL Scouting Combine.

Xavier Worthy is a wide receiver prospect that the Kansas City Chiefs may want to keep their eyes on in the upcoming draft.

He set the record for the fastest 40-yard dash time at the 2024 NFL Scouting Combine on Saturday, making a mark for himself in the history books in front of scouts in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Check out this clip of his historic run:

Worthy was a star at the University of Texas, playing alongside Adonai Mitchell in a Longhorns offense that ended the 2023 season with a 12-2 record.

His fantastic showing at the combine is likely to make his draft stock rise before the annual player selection meeting in April and may draw the attention of receiver-needy teams like the Chiefs.

Social media exploded after his official 40-yard dash time was announced, and some users thought that Kansas City could be a logical destination for Worthy:

Twitter reacts to Harrison Butker’s record-setting field goal in Super Bowl LVIII

Twitter went wild after Harrison Butker’s record-setting field goal in Super Bowl LVIII.

The Kansas City Chiefs cut the San Francisco 49ers’ lead to four points on a record-setting field goal by kicker Harrison Butker in the third quarter of Super Bowl LVIII.

The 57-yard make eclipsed the record set earlier in the game by 49ers kicker Jake Moody, whose aim was true from 55 yards to set the initial record.

Check out Butker’s record-setting field goal here, and notice how the ball perfectly split the uprights with room to spare:

Butker has been among the league’s most accurate kickers this season and added to his exceptional résumé with this outstanding score.

Fans reacted to the unbelievable kick on Twitter, giving Butker credit for his amazing accuracy and pointing out that the ball was nearly tipped by San Francisco’s defensive line.

The three points scored on this play may prove to be crucial to Kansas City’s hopes of making a second-half comeback.

WATCH: Alex McPherson makes record-breaking 61-yard field goal

This is insane.

Alex McPherson has broken his older brother’s record.

Evan Mcpherson, now the kicker for the Cincinnati Bengals, booted a 60-yard field goal in 2017 to set the AHSAA state record for a field goal that included a snap, hold and kick against pressure.

Alex, who is committed to Auburn, kicked 61-yarder in Fort Payne’s 32-7 win over North Jackson, to break the record and tie Auburn’s Sage Ledbetter for the longest field goal in Alabama high school history. Ledbetter’s kick was a free-kick back in 2015 against Smiths Station.

Alex has now made two of the six longest kicks in Alabama high school history.
