Chiefs Bring In Former Packers DE Jerel Worthy For Workout

 

Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports reports that the Chiefs brought in former second-round pick DE Jerel Worthy for a workout on Monday.

  • La Canfora adds that other players were also in attendance for tryouts on Monday, but didnโ€™t offer any names.

This comes just a day after the team lost veteran DE Mike DeVito for the season with a torn Achillesโ€™ tendon.

The Packers sent Worthy to the Patriots in trade that included a conditional 2015 late-round draft pick, but he was unable to make the team, which eliminated the draft compensation for Green Bay.

Worthy, 24, is coming off of a season-ending ACL injury, so there are some concerns about his ability moving forward. However, Chiefs GM John Dorsey was with the Packers when they drafted Worthy, so heโ€™s more than familiar with what he brings to the table.

Weโ€™ll have to see if Kansas City elects to sign him to a contract.
