Worthy, who has been a cornerstone of the Longhorns’ offense since his breakout freshman season, is widely regarded as one of the most electrifying players in college football. Known for his blazing speed, precise route running, and knack for making highlight-reel plays, Worthy’s presence on the field has been pivotal to Texas’ resurgence as a national contender.
This extension marks a significant commitment from both Worthy and the program. Longhorns head coach Steve Sarkisian expressed his excitement about the deal, emphasizing Worthy’s impact not only as a player but as a leader in the locker room.

Worthy’s decision to remain with Texas comes amid a wave of excitement for the program. With the team poised to make noise in the upcoming College Football Playoff and a move to the SEC on the horizon, the Longhorns are building momentum as a powerhouse in college football.
By securing Worthy through 2028, the Longhorns are sending a clear message to the rest of the nation: Texas is not just back—they’re here to stay. Fans can expect many more thrilling moments from Worthy in burnt orange as he continues to etch his name into Longhorns history.
