Chiefs' Xavier Worthy scores a touchdown and gives the ball to mom in a sweet moment

Kansas City Chiefs rookie wide receiver Xavier Worthy had one of the best moments of the game on Monday night as the team defeated the New Orleans Saints 26-13.

Worthy only had one carry on the night, but he made it count. Travis Kelce lined up as quarterback in Wildcat formation. He handed the ball to Worthy, who ran it into the end zone for the three-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter.

The former Texas Longhorns star walked near the stands and handed the ball to his mother. They hugged and she went back to her seat. The ESPN broadcast showed Nicky Jones celebrating with the football back in her seat.

It was Worthy's second rushing touchdown of the season. In Week 1, he showed off his speed and scored a game-winning goal against the Baltimore Ravens. He also caught a touchdown in that game against the Ravens. Last week he caught another touchdown against the Los Angeles Chargers.

The 21-year-old's role is expected to increase following Rashee Rice's injury. In four games, he had 12 catches on 21 targets for 179 yards and two touchdowns.

In the win against the Saints, the defense seemed to focus more on him and Kelce, which allowed JuJu Smith-Schuster to have an incredible game.
