The Chiefs are worthy. They have Worthy. Xavier Worthy, the 28th pick in round one (after the Chiefs traded up with the Bills), has made his training camp debut. With a bang. Via Adam Teicher of ESPN.com, Worthy caught a touchdown pass from Patrick Mahomes during the first 11-on-11 drills of 2024 training camp. The man who capped the 2023 season with a Super Bowl-winning touchdown pass is a believer. He's adjusting well," receiver Mecole Hardman said. "He comes with that speed, so I'm pretty sure we're going to have him on a lot of things going deep. So, I think now just get the chemistry with him and Pat going and hopefully we can translate it on to the season. Coach Andy Reid is a believer, too. We've just got to keep him going here and keep learning," Reid said, via Teicher. "We're just one [practice] into it and they've got 12 of them, so he's got a lot more information coming at him and formations and shifts and motions and all that stuff. But he did a nice job today. They need him to do a nice job when the season begins, on September 5 against the Ravens. With Rashee Rice's status up in the air (the Commissioner Exempt list looms as a very real possibility, given eight pending felony charges), they need Worthy to figure out the offense, quickly. That's one of the reasons why the Chiefs have supported Rice. He figured out the offense right away. Faster, some would say, than Tyreek Hill. Worthy, who ran the fastest 40-yard dash in Scouting Combine history, needs to get on the fast track when it comes to getting ready to hit the ground sprinting as of Week 1.

Daniel Weinman won the World Series of Poker's main event world championship on Monday in Las Vegas, earning $12.1 million along the way. Playing in the tournament for a 16th year, Weinman was tops in a deep pool of 10,043 players vying for $93.39 million. His victory came after just 164 hands at the final table. "I was honestly on the fence about even coming back and playing this tournament," the 35-year-old Atlanta native told reporters afterward. Weinman's final table featured Jan-Peter Jachtmann, who landed in fourth place and took home $3 million, as well as Toby Lewis, who finished seventh and secured $1.42 million. According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the main event's entry pool far outpaced the previous record of 8,773 set in 2006. "I've always kind of felt that poker was kind of going in a dying direction, but to see the numbers at the World Series this year has been incredible," Weinman said. "And to win this main event, it doesn't feel real. I mean, [there's] so much luck in a poker tournament. I thought I played very well." Steven Jones finished second, securing $6.5 million. And Adam Walton settled for third and a $4 million prize.
