Kansas City Chiefs rookie wide receiver Xavier Worthy, who lit up the NFL in 2024 with his speed and breakout Super Bowl performance, now finds himself at the center of a legal and emotional storm involving his former fiancée, track and field star Tia Jones. The 21-year-old athlete's promising career has been overshadowed this offseason by serious domestic allegations and a bitter back-and-forth that has spilled into courtrooms and social media.
Xavier Worthy counters with explosive allegations of his own
Xavier Worthy, who tallied 59 catches, 638 receiving yards, and nine total touchdowns in his rookie season, became a fan favorite thanks to his electrifying plays and versatility. But that on-field momentum came to a sudden halt when he was arrested earlier this year on allegations of assault involving a family member—later identified as Jones. While formal charges were never filed, the incident has triggered an ongoing saga that’s now playing out publicly and legally.
In a surprising legal move, Worthy has filed a lawsuit against Jones, seeking damages between $250,000 and $1 million. He claims she destroyed $150,000 worth of his personal property, including $30,000 in cash and a gaming console. Worthy also alleges he was physically assaulted, stating that Jones scratched his face and ripped out portions of his hair during an altercation.
Perhaps the most alarming accusation involves an alleged extortion attempt. Worthy says Jones demanded a $2 million home, and after he refused, she used a key to his Rolls-Royce to vandalize personal items. He has presented photographic evidence in court, including pictures of damage and hair he claims was torn from his scalp.
Tia Jones responds with cryptic Bible verse and secures protective order
Jones broke her silence with a carefully worded Instagram post featuring a photo from the SEC Championship and the caption, “Proverbs 12:22.” The verse reads, “Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord, but those who deal faithfully are His delight,” a not-so-subtle suggestion that she believes Worthy is being dishonest.
Meanwhile, her legal team has successfully secured a protective order against Worthy, which a judge extended on April 3. Jones maintains she was the victim, with her representatives stating she feared for her safety.

As both sides double down on their claims, this off-field drama may have lasting implications not just for their personal lives but also for Worthy’s future in the NFL.
