Online arrest records at Williamson County state that the alleged assault impeded the victim’s ability to breathe or caused them to choke.
The 21-year-old Chiefs rookie has not been granted bail and could face up to 10 years behind bars.
Under Texas law, the charge is a third-degree felony carrying a sentence of between two and 10 years.
No further details of his arrest have been given and the victim is unknown.
The wide receiver is engaged to sprinter Tia Jones and the pair revealed that they own a home together.
However, it is not known if this is where the alleged incident took place.
No comments have been made by either Worthy or Tia on social media.
The only statement issued so far by the NFL is that “we are aware of the matter and have been in contact with the club.”
Worthy was drafted by the Chiefs 20th overall in 2024 and scored two touchdowns in the Superbowl in February.
In his first season, Worthy had 59 catches for 638 yards and six touchdowns, and 20 rushes for 104 yards and three more scores.
The U.S. Sun has reached out to his representatives and the Chiefs for comment.
