Chiefs Rookie Xavier Worthy and Fiancee Tia Jones' Relationship Timeline

Xavier Worthy made a splash when he was drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in April 2024 — and his now-fiancée, Tia Jones, was by his side to celebrate.

Worthy was the Chiefs’ first round pick at the No. 28 spot in the 2024 NFL Draft after running a record breaking 40-yard dash in 4.21 seconds at the NFL combine that spring. That same month, Jones highlighted Worthy on her Instagram profile and applauded his achievements.

“Welcome to the chiefs kingdom . #chiefs #nfldraft #worthy,” Jones captioned a series of Instagram photos with the receiver.

While it’s unknown when Worthy and Jones, who competed at the 2024 Paris Olympic Trials, began dating, they have become more public throughout 2024. The pair announced their engagement in July of that year and Jones cheered on her fiancé as he made his NFL debut two months later.
