The full breakdown

Worthy earned a 65.7 grade primarily due to a heavy volume of routine, neutral plays (38 of 43 snaps) combined with consistent, positive contributions on his non-neutral reps. His receiving facet was anchored by a +1.0 win at Q2 08:43, where he sold a vertical stem to separate cleanly along the sideline for a 17-yard completion. He consistently aided the passing attack without the ball in hand, backing off deep coverage to create underneath voids (Q3 09:40) and showing hustle to tackle an interceptor (Q2 02:00). In the run game, he contributed a +0.5 stalk block at Q2 03:10 to spring a 22-yard gain, but lacked the overall volume of high-leverage wins to elevate his grade into the solid tier.
