Despite the blowout loss, Fresno native Xavier Worthy served as the solo shining star for Kansas City's offense.

The rookie WR hauled in 8 catches for 157 yards and two touchdowns.

Down 34-0 late in the third quarter, QB Patrick Mahomes finally got the Chiefs on the board with a 24-yard touchdown pass to the Central High graduate.

In garbage time, Mahomes would once again fire a strike to the streaking Worthy to cut the deficit to 20 late in the fourth.
