There was two things different for Worthy. coach and QB.
2 things that you can easily identify.

He was coming off a successful freshman campaign which much bigger expectations then he faced as a freshman.  It could be that he ate too much rat poison,  or was listening to a fat girl friend telling him how great he was. He may have had personal challenges that we have no window on. 

It's easy to think you know what the likely reason(s) are, maybe the QB or the coach were significant factors,  but maybe not.

 
Soph. slump, do not like getting hit, mad at the coach, just doesent care, All and many more reasons why he regressed.

 
I see where some are saying Worthy was fighting through a broken hand last season. Anyone else hear this? 

 
I agree.....sounds like excuse making to me. I just wondered if anyone else saw this.
I did hear about that too. I believe it was all based off of some comment made by Brennon Marion on a social media post saying something negative about Worthy.

Or it could have been he was frustrated  running down field for almost every deep ball and being overthrown  continually.

He dropped a lot of passes and can’t track a deep ball well.

Where's the Career Drops? The Career Rout Give Ups?

You can see his actual stats in the below link. You can see he regressed last year in every category. So thank God for his Freshman year or you probably wouldn't have wanted to post this.

He has had his share of drops. As for as route runing how can one tell with  out the playbook.

Still only two known differences Coach (now gone) and QB.

So you're attributing his failures to outside factors, not on him. Interesting. Not.

If I were QE, I'd find a couple other targets who will do what they're coached to do in case Hollywood decides to continue his 2022 ways.
