The charge is a third-degree felony in Texas and punishable by two to 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
Worthy had not yet posted bond as of Saturday morning and the online records did not include any further details about the arrest.
“We are aware and gathering information,” the Chiefs said in a statement.
From Fresno, Calif., Worthy played three seasons with the Longhorns before becoming a first-round pick of the Chiefs last April, recording 59 catches for 638 yards and nine touchdowns during his rookie season.
