There weren’t many better NFL Week 1 breakouts than Chiefs receiver Xavier Worthy, who electrified last Thursday night’s opener against Baltimore with a pair of touchdowns.
Fanatics/Topps has Worthy under contract and quickly jumped on the opportunity to push out a Topps NOW card of Worthy, with potential bonuses for someone who ordered one of them.
Topps promoted on-card autograph redemptions numbered to 25, 10, 5 or a 1 of 1 with the “2 TD Debut” inscription.
There are also numbered base parallel cards possible.
The cards are available until Monday afternoon via the Topps website.
