Worden popped up on my radar when researching interesting sophomores from the 2025 season. The Sioux City North defensive back/receiver accumulated 33.5 tackles, 26 of which were solo stops. He came up with a pair of tackles for loss, a sack, two fumble recoveries and a forced fumble. Worden produced when called upon on offense, catching a couple of passes for 35 yards and a touchdown. When we pop on his 10th-grade highlight video, we observe a long-limbed athlete with a projectable frame capable of adding plenty of good weight without the loss of the athleticism that makes him in intriguing prospect. The film opens with his receptions, the first a slick deep route and the second an acrobatic grab in the end zone. From there, we see the high upside on defense as a well-rounded DB capable of sticking in coverage or coming down hard against the run. Worden definitely is one to watch moving forward.
