Hilton made his first two catches back to back for 10 yards. Hilton nearly caught his third target underneath but it skipped off the turf before he could corral it. Made a 7 yard catch running a quick out route. Luck overthrew Hilton 30 yards downfield and signaled to Hilton that the missed throw was his fault but Hilton was double covered.

Hilton scored his touchdown running with Luck as he scrambled who found him in the back of the end zone for a 2 yard score.

2016 Week 5 vs CHI (11 / 10 / 171 / 1 rec)

TY Hilton was unstoppable against the Bears. Hilton picked up 13 running an in route over the middle on his first reception. Hilton burned his man on a crossing route and picked up 22 yards over the middle. Hilton made 4 big catches on a single possession. First, Hilton came wide open on an underneath crossing route and sprinted up the sideline for 19 yards but a penalty negated the big gain. Then, Hilton made a 31 yard catch on a deep crossing route thanks to a great play from Luck. Hilton followed it with 20 more yards after falling down making his break on the play. Finally Hilton came wide open on a slant route over the middle and was brought down after a 21 yard gain. Hilton drew a holding penalty on what would have been a 15 yard reception. In his final act, Hilton torched his man on a post route for a 35 yard touchdown game winning touchdown. Hilton was as dominant as his statistics suggest and Luck should continue to feed him with no other options emerging in the passing game.

2016 Week 6 vs HOU (9 / 3 / 49 / 0 rec)

TY Hilton made one big play but the Texans did well taking away Luck's favorite target. Hilton made his first catch on a beautiful back shoulder throw from Luck for a 31 yard gain. Hilton made an impressive contested diving catch to convert a 3rd and long. Hilton had an 11 yard reception nullified upon review. Hilton was unable to get involved in the underneath passing game like he has all season. Defenses could continue to zero in on Hilton with a depleted passing game around him.

2016 Week 7 vs TEN (12 / 7 / 133 / 1 rec)

TY Hilton absolutely torched the Titans secondary all game and could have had a much bigger day. Hilton made plays at every level of the field and looked unstoppable. Hilton made an impressive 24 catch on a back shoulder throw from Luck on his first catch. Hilton did well to extend to secure the pass and get both feet inbounds. Hilton had an ugly drop running a crossing route over the middle on what would have been a big play. Hilton Drew a holding penalty on a deep target from Luck.

2016 Week 9 vs GB (8 / 6 / 82 / 0 rec)

TY Hilton made plays all over the field against the Packers. Hilton picked up 20 yards running a crossing route beating Jake Ryan in coverage on the play. Hilton picked up 5 yards on a dump off from Luck. Hilton beat Micah Hyde over the middle and gained 17 yards. Hilton picked up 7 running a quick out.

2016 Week 11 vs TEN (9 / 5 / 97 / 1 rec)

TY Hilton made his first catch working across the field as Luck scrambled for a 20 yard gain. Hilton scored an impressive 2 yard touchdown running a crossing route and muscling the ball away from Perrish Cox. Hilton picked up 13 running a double move across the middle of the field. Hilton dropped what would have been a 30 yard completion working back to make the catch on an underthrown pass.

2016 Week 12 vs PIT (5 / 3 / 54 / 0 rec)

TY Hilton could have had a huge game if not for a drop and unfortunate injury. Hilton roasted William Gay on a corner route for an 18 yard gain. TY Hilton easily beat Ross Cockrell on a 9 route but dropped what would have been a 63 yard touchdown. Hilton made an impressive 32 yard catch running a 9 route but took a hard hit from Mike Mitchell that forced him to leave the game.

2016 Week 13 vs NYJ (10 / 9 / 146 / 0 rec)

Hilton beat his man running a deep crossing route, slipped a tackle and escaped up the sideline for a 34 yard gain.

TY Hilton found the soft spot in the zone coverage and connected with Luck for 17 yards. Hilton burned Buster Skrine on a crossing route then juked him for a 24 yard gain. Hilton did have one drop on what would have been a 7 yard gain.

2016 Week 14 vs HOU (13 / 9 / 115 / 1 rec)

TY Hilton continues to by Luck's favorite target and make plays all over the field. Hilton made a tough toe tapping catch with Kareem Jackson trying to force him out of bounds for a 17 yard gain. The play was challenged and was upheld upon review. Hilton gained 8 yards running a delayed slant route. Hilton was physical and made a 9 yard catch against Kareem Jackson.

Hilton drew pass interference on the play but the penalty was declined. Hilton beat Kareem Jackson for 14 more yards running a comeback route on the outside.

2016 Week 15 vs MIN (7 / 3 / 45 / 0 rec)

TY Hilton did not see a high volume of targets because of the Colts game-plan and the game script that unfolded. Hilton beat his man on a slant route for a gain of 12. Hilton came back to the ball and made a leaping catch on an under thrown pass from Luck for a gain of 31. Hilton was targeted on back to back plays in the end zone but could not connect with Luck. Hilton dropped an underneath catch but the pass from Luck appeared to have too much heat on it. Hilton made a nice catch along the sideline for a 2 yard gain converting a 3rd down and short.

2016 Week 16 vs OAK (9 / 4 / 105 / 0 rec)

TY Hilton broke 100 yards but caught less than half his targets. Hilton made his first catch for 13 yards running a slant route. Hilton was the target on both of Luck's interceptions but both were bad decisions and throws. TY Hilton beat TJ Carrie running a 9 route and caught a perfect pass from Luck for 39 yards. Hilton picked up 15 yard working out of the slot and making a grab in front of Nate Allen. Hilton converted a 2 point conversion attempt running a quick out route.

2016 Week 17 vs JAX (12 / 6 / 95 / 0 rec)

TY Hilton dropped his first target running a curl route. Jalen Ramsey made a nice play on the ball to knock away an end zone target. Hilton ran an out route from the slot and picked up 19 taking advantage of the linebacker covering him. Hilton beat Ramsey running an out route for 15 yards.

Hilton beat Ramsey and made a contested catch for a 13 yard gain along the sideline. Hilton beat Ramsey for 10 more yards running a shallow crossing route.

2015 Week 1 vs BUF (14 / 7 / 88 / 0 rec)

Sunday was a reminder that Hilton is Andrew Luck's favorite target, no matter what the matchup is. Luck targeted Hilton a whopping 14 times, even with Hilton missing roughly 25 snaps in the second half after suffering from a bone bruise. Had Luck's accuracy not been so off on Sunday, Hilton would have had a much better day, as Luck missed him on two deep shots that fell short. Hilton's injury is the real story, however. The fact that it was merely a deep bruise, rather than structural damage, is a relief, but Hilton may still miss a game or two.

2015 Week 2 vs NYJ (7 / 4 / 45 / 0 rec)

Clearly limited because of his knee injury, T.Y. Hilton was still the second-most productive receiver on the Colts, and could have been even more if Luck hadn't played so poorly. Hilton still looked spry, and even busted out a surprisingly strong stiff arm on Darrelle Revis in the second half. Once he gets back to full health, expect Luck to lean on him in an attempt to kickstart a struggling offense.

2015 Week 3 vs TEN (7 / 4 / 94 / 0 rec)

It wasn't a particularly dominant day for T.Y. Hilton, but it was a very efficient one. Hilton was the only Colt to consistently get open down the field, resulting in in catches of 48, 21 and 16 yards. Hilton did have a bit of a sloppy route on Andrew Luck's first interception, but the Colts will still likely look to get him more involved on shorter routes over the middle when teams are sending blitzing linebackers. Hilton is still the No. 1 receiver, and will have bigger days, but his touchdown opportunities may be even less than expected as Donte Moncrief and Frank Gore continue to impress in the red zone.

2015 Week 4 vs JAX (13 / 7 / 67 / 0 rec)

While Hilton was still able to productive with Matt Hasselbeck at quarterback, he continues to look like he's not quite 100 percent, as a dinged knee continues to heal. Hilton and Hasselbeck couldn't get on the same page on deep balls on Sunday, although the opportunity was there. Whether it was Hilton's knee or a lack of trust in Hasselbeck's arm, Hilton couldn't quite get the timing down. Still, he'll be fed in the Colts' offense, and Luck's return should be a big boost. Hilton has a great track record against the Texans, and will certainly be praying for Luck's shoulder to heal in time for Thursday's game.

2015 Week 5 vs HOU (9 / 5 / 88 / 0 rec)

While T.Y. Hilton has yet to score this season, much less have a breakout game, he's been relatively consistent despite suffering a knee injury in Week 2, which he's still feeling the effects of. He's had at least 50 yards in every game except Week 2, and has averaged 10 targets per game. On Thursday, Hilton had just five catches, compared six catches and two touchdowns for Andre Johnson, but he still was the receiver the Colts went to when they needed a play, as Matt Hasselbeck went to him for a 43-yard bomb on the game-clinching third down. As Andrew Luck returns, and the deep passing game picks up, Hilton's production will only rise.

2015 Week 6 vs NE (9 / 6 / 74 / 1 rec)

The Colts' No. 1 receiver was finally able to make some plays against the Patriots on Sunday, finishing with his fourth 70-yard game of the season and scoring his first touchdown of the season. Hilton and Donte Moncrief were the only receivers to make plays for the Colts, and they'll continue to power the offense as the season goes on. Still, Hilton hasn't been the downfield threat yet this season that he has been in the past. His volume and position in a potentially high-octane offense continues to ensure that he will be at least a WR2, but his ceiling won't be reached until he starts to make an impact as a vertical threat.

2015 Week 7 vs NO (15 / 4 / 150 / 2 rec)

The Colts' top receiving target put up his best fantasy production of the year on Sunday, picking up his first deep touchdowns of the year. You knew these would be coming eventually for Hilton, and they couldn't have come at a better time for the Colts, who needed the quick 87 and 46-yard scores to get back into the game against New Orleans. After going scoreless for the first five games of the season, Hilton has three scores in the last two games. While it was a bit concerning that a poor New Orleans defense was able to keep Hilton bottled up for most of the game, it's clear that his hip injury from Week 2 has yet to fully heal. But even if we never see fully healthy Hilton this season, he'll still be a reliable WR1 for the rest of the season.

2015 Week 8 vs CAR (7 / 1 / 15 / 0 rec)

Hilton was a victim of Carolina cornerback Josh Norman on Monday, who limited him to just one catch on seven targets. Hilton was not helped by Andrew Luck's struggles, however. He had Norman beat deep twice when Luck underthrew him just enough for Norman to make a play on the ball, and he had another first-down pass hit the ground before an open, diving Hilton could pull it in. Hilton could do more at the catch point on some of these passes, but Norman has been a tough matchup for every wideout that's faced him this year. Against the Broncos, Hilton faces another tough matchup, but he's gotten the better of Aqib Talib before, if that's his shadow.

2015 Week 9 vs DEN (6 / 5 / 82 / 0 rec)

In one of the most gritty games of his career, Hilton played through a foot sprain on Sunday, despite being reported out a few hours before kickoff. Hilton's injury was supposed to keep him out for four weeks, and he didn't practice all week, but he made it work Sunday. He started off with a bang, too, catching a 28-yard lob up the seam and holding on despite a wicked hit by Denver safety T.J. Ward. Hilton got loose for a 30-yard crossing route later in the game, and made another tough catch despite a hit on the sideline that was called back due to an illegal touching penalty. He was held out of the end zone on the day, but against the Denver secondary, it was a stellar performance in tough circumstances.

2015 Week 11 vs ATL (4 / 2 / 21 / 0 rec)

It was not a banner day for the Colts' No. 1 receiver, as T.Y. Hilton was targeted a season-low four times. He was blanketed by Desmond Trufant for most of the day, and Matt Hasselbeck was not looking to drive the ball down the field for most of the game. Hilton did have a nice one-handed grab at the sideline, but he still finished with just his second game of the season with less than 40 yards receiving. Against more favorable secondaries in upcoming weeks, Hilton should see his more usual production, even if Hasselbeck's timid passing continues.

2015 Week 12 vs TB (12 / 6 / 95 / 2 rec)

This kind of day was needed for T.Y. Hilton. With Tampa Bay focusing on the run game and the secondary vulnerable, Hilton finally got on the same page as Matt Hasselbeck in the second half, catching passes for 31, 29 and 19 yards. Hilton tormented each of Tampa Bay's outmatched cornerbacks and found space in the intermediary zones on crossing routes. Hilton hasn't been able to get Hasselbeck's attention for most of his four starts, but the play-action finally started working in this game. If that strategy continues going forward, Hilton could return to his status as a fantasy WR1.

2015 Week 13 vs PIT (5 / 3 / 36 / 0 rec)

After a refreshingly stout game against Tampa Bay last week, Hilton was supposed to continue his strong play against the inconsistent Steelers secondary, but was unable to with Matt Hasselbeck struggling to complete basic plays. It was Hilton's second-fewest amount of targets this season, and third-fewest receptions and yards. Hilton did miss out on one catchable throw down the middle of the field on Sunday, but it was a diving effort under duress that would have required incredible effort. Hilton will have another plus matchup against the Jaguars on Sunday, but until Luck comes back healthy, his floor is very low.

2015 Week 14 vs JAX (7 / 4 / 132 / 0 rec)

Though the Colts' offense was once again stuck in neutral on Sunday, T.Y. Hilton was able to produce. As has been the case too often this year, Hilton was the only player able to make a play through the air, with a spectacular leaping catch and run for 57 yards in the first half. Even without that play, he would have led the Colts in receiving, even with Matt Hasselbeck's struggles leading to just four catches for the speedy Hilton. Hilton is currently 10th among all wide receivers in yards this season, and is the only receiver in the league with at least 40 catches to average at least 17 yards per reception. Despite issues at quarterback, Hilton has produced all season as a WR1 and is one of the league's premier deep threats. His ceiling remains sky-high when Andrew Luck is healthy, whether that is this season or in 2016.

2015 Week 15 vs HOU (5 / 3 / 29 / 0 rec)

T.Y. Hilton has historically destroyed the Texans, so expectations were high despite Hasselbeck's struggles. But after a couple first-down catches in the first quarter, the Texans took Hilton completely out of the game, and he didn't catch another pass until a 13-yard reception from Charlie Whitehurst in the fourth quarter. Hilton has played well this season in rough circumstances, but Sunday was another reminder of the kind of receiver Hilton is: he's not going to physically dominate defenses or earn big after-the-catch yards. Hilton needs a quarterback to get him the ball, and the Colts can only hope that Luck returns to his normal levels soon.

2015 Week 16 vs MIA (7 / 4 / 64 / 0 rec)

Once again, T.Y. Hilton led the Colts' passing attack, but the anemic nature of the offense with Matt Hasselbeck and Charlie Whitehurst meant Hilton's production was severely capped. Hilton did manage a few impressive plays, including a 28-yard catch-and-run on a crossing route over the middle. When the Colts' quarterback situation is consistent, Hilton can be a threat, as he's shown this season. Sunday was Hilton's 10th game with at least 50 yards, despite dealing with what continues to be subpar quarterbacking.

2015 Week 17 vs TEN (7 / 4 / 44 / 0 rec)

The Colts' leading receiver wasn't able to get much going down the field on Sunday with the accuracy-limited Josh Freeman and Ryan Lindley. Hilton failed to gain 50 yards for the sixth time on Sunday, his fourth time in the final seven games. After hitting the 50-yard mark in seven of the first nine games, Hilton never strung together consecutive 50-yard games in the second half of the year. The fourth-year receiver is salivating at the prospect of getting Andrew Luck back next season, as well as a potentially upgraded offensive line. With his third consecutive 1,000-yard season, Hilton should still be a hot fantasy commodity next season, and could be a potential steal if Luck bounces back.

2014 Week 1 vs DEN (11 / 5 / 41 / 0 rec)

It was a day to forget for Hilton, who was clearly a part of the Colts game plan (11 targets) but was shut down for most of the night. Hilton did produce a long pass interference call, which won't show up in the stats but adds to the number of reasons why the Colts will continue to target him heavily. Hilton did drop one ball outright and had another catchable ball knocked away, but he also was double-teamed with a safety quite a bit. Don't be surprised if the Colts come out with a more focused game plan next week to get him the ball on shallow crossing routes.

2014 Week 2 vs PHI (11 / 6 / 65 / 0 rec)

While Hilton still hasn't hit on a big play, he's still one of Andrew Luck's go-to guys, and his 11 targets against Philadelphia reminded us of that. When teams start rolling coverage over the top, Hilton will still pick up possession receptions on shallow crossers, and has the speed to pick up a few yards after the catch. Hilton also got a screen opportunity on Monday, although those may fade away, as he's not particularly elusive.

2014 Week 3 vs JAX (6 / 5 / 80 / 0 rec)

His numbers won't pop out at you from the box score, but Hilton was well on his way to a stellar fantasy day before a minor ankle tweak forced the Colts to sit him for the second half. Yes, Hilton's 80 yards came just in the first half as Luck established the third-year wide receiver as his go-to guy down the field. Hilton has yet to score a touchdown or catch a long ball over the top, but in the last four quarters he's played, he's caught nine passes for 132 yards. His breakout game is coming sooner rather than later.

2014 Week 4 vs TEN (10 / 6 / 105 / 0 rec, 1 / 5 / 0 rush)

Another week without a touchdown for Hilton, but make no mistake, he's due. Hilton was the most targeted Colt for the second week in a row, and the Colts were about two inches away from two separate deep-ball touchdowns. On the first, Hilton made a fantastic adjustment to come back to the ball and pull down the contested catch on the one-yard line, nearly rolling over in time to get across the goal line. On the second, Luck's pass was just tipped by Titans CB Blidi Wreh-Wilson. About two inches farther on the throw and Hilton would have had a deep score down the seam that he's become so deadly with over the last two years.

2014 Week 5 vs BAL (12 / 9 / 90 / 0 rec)

Hilton shared the team lead in targets this week, as Reggie Wayne was also targeted 12 times. But Hilton was the one to lead the team in yards and receptions, and just missed out on a touchdown pass that was called back because of Wayne's too-obvious pick on the crossing route. Hilton continues to show his improvements in route-running as well as dependable hands and impeccable footwork as a possession receiver. The Colts haven't connected on a deep ball to him over the top yet, but that--and touchdowns--will come soon. He and Wayne are 1a and 1b.

2014 Week 6 vs HOU (9 / 9 / 223 / 1 rec)

After racking up targets and catches in previous weeks, Hilton's big day was inevitable, and the fact that it came against Houston fit the narrative even better. Hilton has dominated the Texans on deep balls over the middle in the last few matchups, and he caught three long passes over the top on Sunday, the third a 33-yard touchdown pass for his first score of the year. Hilton continues to be Andrew Luck's No. 1 target, even over Reggie Wayne, and he's responding with big numbers. Hilton is fourth in the league in receptions and yards, and fifth in targets. More touchdowns will come.

2014 Week 7 vs CIN (9 / 7 / 107 / 0 rec)

Hilton continued to justify his WR1 status on Sunday with another versatile performance, beating the Bengals deep, over the middle, down the sideline and on a screen. He was held out of the end zone again, but he's playing well enough right now to justify starting even when he's not scoring. He has at least five receptions in every game this season, and has at least 80 yards in each of his last five games. Hilton is known as boom-or-bust because of his explosive nature, but he's more boom-or-solid right now.

2014 Week 8 vs PIT (10 / 6 / 155 / 1 rec)

Another impressive day for Hilton, who had his third consecutive 100-yard game (fifth consecutive with at least 90 yards) and found the end zone for the second time all year. Hilton's touchdowns will come as the Colts' deep passing attack improves. With rookie speedster Donte Moncrief getting more snaps against Pittsburgh, the downfield passing attack had a bit more space to work with. If he continues to play, Hilton could continue to see these high yards per catch numbers.

2014 Week 9 vs NYG (6 / 3 / 71 / 1 rec)

You know a season is going well when three catches for 71 yards and a touchdown is a down week for you. It was the first time Hilton was limited to less than 90 yards since the Week 3 blowout in Jacksonville. Hilton was only targeted six times, matching his season-low from the aforementioned win over the Jaguars. But even with the Giants doing what they could to limit his production, Hilton reminded us that he's one of the league's best receivers this season, going up and ripping away a near-interception from Giants cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. Hilton will likely go back to seeing a more high-volume usage after the bye.

2014 Week 11 vs NE (7 / 3 / 24 / 0 rec)

The Patriots shaded extra coverage Hilton's way throughout the game, and while it resulted in some bigger opportunities for Coby Fleener up the middle, it effectively took Hilton out of the game. Hilton was still targeted seven times, and will be Andrew Luck's No. 1 receiver, but he was limited to less than 65 yards for the first time since Week 1.

2014 Week 12 vs JAX (5 / 4 / 122 / 1 rec, 1 / 15 / 0 rush)

Hilton's fifth 100-yard game of the season was one of the few positives to come from a messy game in Indianapolis. The third-year receiver was the Colts' leading receiver before he caught his 73-yard touchdown, and he continues to be Luck's first priority. The Jaguars, like most teams will from here on out, keyed in on Hilton throughout the game, but the Colts still were able to manufacture some shorter routes for him, as well as a 15-yard end-around. Then, of course, there's always the possibility of the big play when it comes to Hilton, and that came to fruition on Sunday with his race down the sideline for six points.

2014 Week 13 vs WAS (5 / 5 / 62 / 1 rec)

A relatively ho-hum performance for Hilton, considering the year he's had, but the third-year receiver kickstarted the offense with a 25-yard back-shoulder catch in the first half, then scored a touchdown with an ankle-breaking route and impressive snag in the back on the end zone to finish the drive. Hilton and Luck's connection continues to be off the charts, and Hilton's big-play threat opened things up for Coby Fleener and Donte Moncrief on Sunday, who each finished with two long touchdowns as a result of safeties sliding to Hilton's side.

2014 Week 14 vs CLE (19 / 10 / 150 / 2 rec)

If any of the Colts are matchup-proof, it's Hilton, who overcame a slow first half (one catch, nine yards) for his sixth 100-yard game of the season. Hilton left some plays on the field, including a dropped touchdown, a fumble and a catchable ball that was tipped up for an interception, but was brilliant in the second half when the Colts needed him most. Joe Haden blanketed Hilton for most of the day, but Hilton beat him on a 42-yard touchdown and then later on the game-winning score. Hilton now has over 80 yards or a touchdown (or both) in 10 of the last 11 games. With his high workload (19 targets on Sunday), Hilton will continue to produce WR1 numbers against suspect secondaries down the stretch.

2014 Week 15 vs HOU (8 / 4 / 50 / 0 rec)

For the first time in his career, the Texans were able to keep Hilton under 75 yards. But Hilton looked uncoverable early, racking up all five catches for 50 yards by halftime. But the Colts' offense got conservative in the second half, and Hilton dropped one target and couldn't turn his hips for a back-shoulder attempt on another. Hilton's lack of production in the second half was more due to circumstance than his play, although Houston did make a very concerted effort to keep him from beating them over the top. He had a hamstring issue coming out of this one, but the MRI was negative and Hilton hopes to play in Week 16.

2014 Week 17 vs TEN (3 / 0 / 0 / 0 rec)

Hilton was the victim of a vanilla game plan that focused on the tight ends and running game on Sunday. He did have a couple deep chances, but they were knocked away by defenders. Hilton's strong season still was a wild success, however, and it rightfully earned him a Pro Bowl spot. He should be Andrew Luck's best friend in the coming years.

2014 Week 19 vs DEN (8 / 4 / 72 / 0 rec, 1 / 1 / 0 rush)

Much like in their first matchup, the Broncos tried very hard to take T.Y. Hilton away in this game, shadowing him with Aqib Talib for much of the game and often rolling a safety over the top. Still, Hilton managed to connect with Luck on a few huge plays in the first half, as well as drawing a couple penalties on Talib. Hilton still led the Colts in receiving despite all the added attention. He did add another costly drop, a disappointing trend in the playoffs after showing very dependable hands in the regular season.

2014 Week 20 vs NE (6 / 1 / 36 / 0 rec)

For the second time in as many games, the Patriots were able to keep T.Y. Hilton from making an impact. Hilton caught one pass, a beautiful 36-yard rainbow to the right sideline that the third-year receiver caught with impeccable footwork, but failed to catch a single one of his five other targets. With a safety over the top of him, Patriots CB Kyle Arrington was able to play extremely aggressive on Hilton's short routes and keep him from getting involved. Hilton ends the season on a quiet, and disappointing, note, dropping five passes in three playoff games after dropping five in the entire regular season.

2013 Week 1 vs OAK (5 / 3 / 20 / 0 rec)

Few players had a hype train with more momentum than TY Hilton at points in this offseason; but as week one approached it became obvious that hype was more so hope for overly optimistic Hilton fans. He came in exclusively on 3-wide sets and was the starting punt returner. While TY only had 3 catches on his 5 targets, the 2 non-catches were deep balls thrown by Luck, both were guarded nicely by the defenders. It's a positive sign however because that's where TY is going to get his numbers, on deep bombs from Andrew Luck, and to see that the Colts still have that idea in their gameplan is a positive step moving forward.

2013 Week 2 vs MIA (12 / 6 / 124 / 0 rec)

It was said all week that the Colts were going to try and get Hilton the ball more than they did last week- fantasy owners everywhere were rejoiced when they heard this, and even more happy after they game when they saw that this was all true. TY exploded for 6/140 this game and amassed some 12 targets in total. His first catch came off a DHB bobble, it was one of those right place/right time kind of situations, but that started off his day on the right foot. He was thrown to early and often- bubble screens, quick outs, and also his long of the day- a greatly touched 47 yard bomb in which TY went up for at the top point, and came down with it like it was nothing, flashing his raw athleticism while going up and grabbing it. He still was out there as the starting punt returner, but had nothing to show for that. One ëconcern', if it can even be called that, is that he was shut out in the second half, not hauling in a single catch. However, Darius Heyward-Bey suffered a rib/shoulder injury late in the first half and if he is out any amount of time, he probably isn't going to see the 2-wide spot again. All TY needed was a legit chance, 140 yards and an injury to the man ahead of him on the depth chart later, and you can surely say he'll now have that moving forward.

2013 Week 3 vs SF (4 / 2 / 13 / 0 rec)

About the only positive you could take out of this game for Hilton is that he didn't hurt himself with the way he played, although he didn't make much of a mark overall. With the Colts getting a lead early and playing safe football, it didn't bode well for Hilton from the get-go. He had one target in the second half on a bubble screen. With Heyward-Bey being the bigger, more physical wideout, he was favoured as the Colts went to the ground game to salt the contest away. For Hilton owners, these games are going to happen when a game script unfolds like this.

2013 Week 4 vs JAX (9 / 5 / 48 / 0 rec, 1 / 3 / 0 rush)

With this game being in control practically the whole time, there wasn't need for TY's big play, stretch the field skills that he so often displays- Hilton was used far more in crossing routes and quick under the secondary passes, as his 9.6 YPC would show. He was targeted early on as he had three catches before the first quarter even ended. Second on the team in targets as well shows he was a part of the gameplan, just not in the way he's became known for. He did muff a punt once, however was quick to fall on it before any defenders could. Hilton's up and down statistical season continued today but it's worth noting that Luck is looking his way on the shorter routes, the ones that DHB was taking from him earlier in the season.

2013 Week 5 vs SEA (6 / 5 / 140 / 2 rec)

It was always anticipated- when would TY's breakout game happen? However not many believed it would come against this Seattle secondary. Well it did. Hilton exploded for a statline of 5/140/2, excelling on deep ball plays down the field where he can utilize his speed. He was used all over the field in this game, and both of his TD catches came when he was lined up outside, not in his slot position; on his first TD catch of 73 yards he was actually being guarded by Richard Sherman- Hilton came all the way across the field and with a perfectly placed pass by Luck, Hilton caught it on the sideline and took it straight up it for 6, tip toeing at points but keeping his feet in bounds the whole time. With the second one being from 29 yards out, Hilton went right down the sideline, and again with a great ball from Luck he secured it in the endzone for 6. And that one was on Brandon Browner so it shows you how much TY was scared of this Seattle secondary. For the first time all season, Luck's go-to man was not Wayne, it was Hilton- 3rd downs, Luck would look Hilton's way. He only took chances when throwing it to TY; and even after that second TD catch, when Richard Sherman was tasked with the duty of guarding Hilton, TY still caught passes on him. It was Hilton's day to shine and he made the best of it- hopefully for fantasy owners this is a sign of things to come.

2013 Week 6 vs SD (8 / 5 / 43 / 0 rec)

Potentially the lone bright spot for this Colts offense this game was the usage of TY Hilton. Fantasy owners everywhere were hoping after last week's huge performance he'd finally etched a place for himself in this offense, and after this game it seems as if that is the case. Tying Reggie Wayne for the team high in targets (8) and receptions (5), Hilton was running routes all over the field, not just his usual stretch the field deep ball routes- Luck found him mostly on under crossing routes, where 4 of Hilton's catches came that way for first downs. Hilton was finding himself with space most of the night from the Chargers DBs and when Luck would get it to him, Hilton was out there making plays to get himself to the ball. He had one drop that would've extended a drive late but other than that, TY's game was pretty on and coaches will surely recognize that, and hopefully his upward trend continues next week when the Broncos come to town in what will surely be a heavily passed game.

2013 Week 7 vs DEN (11 / 2 / 27 / 0 rec)

Leading the team in targets, it's a strong indication that Hilton's role in the offense isn't going anywhere. Only catching 2 of his 11 targets however, TY was blanketed most of the night by Chris Harris, a rather underrated corner. TY did haul in an 11 yard grab that extended a drive that ultimately led to a TD to close out the half, putting the Colts up two scores. In a sad way, the best news to Hilton's outlook came this morning when it was confirmed the Colts will be without Reggie Wayne for the remainder of the season with a torn ACL. One would think Hilton will not longer just be a 3-wide set WR, and the team will lean on him more than ever. This seems to be a task TY is more than up for seeing as how when given the chance, the young speedster has normally delivered.

2013 Week 9 vs HOU (12 / 7 / 121 / 3 rec)

It (unfortunately) took a Reggie Wayne season-ending injury to do it, but Hilton finally broke out in a BIG way- a 7/120/3 big way. The only Colts receiver to reach double digit targets, it looks like Luck realized that this offense has now got to go thru Hilton if they're going to have success throwing the ball. Hilton was quiet in the first half, however so was the whole Colts offense. It was not until the final seconds of the third quarter that TY started taking over as he caught a corner route TD from 10 yards out where the DB never got the chance to turn and look for the ball. Then the targets started coming- he was all over the field, catching balls over the middle, outside the numbers, and everywhere in between. Then his second TD catch came- a 58 yard bomb that Luck launched up there and let TY get under, as Hilton blew passed the safety and trotted into the endzone. Finally Hilton made his TD hat trick happen on the lead-taking TD as he did a quick out route at the goaline, made a defender miss and easily got in. Moving forward, it's clear who Luck's go-to guy is going to be- and it seems like TY realizes that and the idea of these two connecting for the second half of the season should make Hilton owners very happy people.

2013 Week 10 vs STL (8 / 7 / 130 / 0 rec)

Statistically Hilton's game was the only bright spot for the Colts in this one. Before everything hit the fan with the Luck sack/stripped/score, they were getting Hilton involved early, getting him 2 quick catches. He was finding himself open across the middle on most of his catches as the Rams were allowing Luck to throw under all game. TY could've potentially added a TD to his game as he caught a 65 yarder down the sideline, from a nicely led pass by Luck, TY had about 15 yards to go and just one defender to worry about when he tripped up over his own feet. In the Colts ugliest game of the season, from a fantasy perspective it was a rather solid day for Hilton; which shows that he is the focal point of this offense at all times.

2013 Week 11 vs TEN (9 / 5 / 44 / 0 rec)

TY was kept in check this game as the Titans underrated secondary made it a point not to let him beat them. He ended up second on the team in targets and catches and was used mostly across the middle as his speed got him enough separation on practically anyone who was guarding him. It was a quiet game, but even in a quiet game he was a main option for Luck which continues to bode well for TY's rest of season outlook.

2013 Week 12 vs ARI (9 / 5 / 38 / 0 rec)

TY got the Patrick Peterson treatment and you can chalk this one up to the DB as he kept Hilton in check all afternoon. Hilton led the team in targets but that didn't show for much in the boxscore as his longest catch went for 12 yards. Luck tried him deep a couple times but Peterson was right there making sure TY never came down with the ball. TY's catches mostly came in between the hash marks as his crossing patterns in the slot led him there. The Cardinals outmatched Indy in every aspect of this game, and when it came to TY, it wasn't much different. TY lands a stingy Titans secondary next week.

2013 Week 13 vs TEN (7 / 5 / 46 / 0 rec)

A rather quiet game for TY as the Titans presumably have a defense dialed up that prevents TY from going off against him as this was his second down game against Tennessee on this season. Hilton was barely targeted in the first half until the final three plays of the half for Indy where Hilton snagged two balls, one being a catch that put them in FG range to close out the half. The Colts passing game didn't have much going today so not much should be read into this one as Hilton still managed to see seven targets despite his personal matchup.

2013 Week 14 vs CIN (5 / 2 / 7 / 0 rec)

Teams have gotten the memo on TY and how he's a gamechanger when he gets his hands on the ball so teams have made it a point to prevent that from happening, practically at all costs as Hilton posted his third straight dud of a game. With only two catches, totaling seven yards, Hilton was a non factor in this one as it was obvious Cincy was going to make their other, far less proven wide receivers beat them- and they didn't. However with the emergence of Da'Rick Rodgers, Hilton owners might have a light at the end of the tunnel as that can be someone that takes attention off of Hilton in the coming weeks.

2013 Week 15 vs HOU (12 / 8 / 78 / 0 rec)

TY was active early catching three passes on the first drive. Screens and quick slants being the routes he's been used on that's where he found his success. Leading the team pretty handily in targets (12), Hilton's biggest catch came on a deep pass of 41 yards where Luck laid it out there perfectly for Hilton to catch up and get under. The #1 passing option in this offense, Hilton has carried the load pretty well as this game was a nice bounce back from the inconsistencies of the past few weeks.

2013 Week 16 vs KC (7 / 5 / 52 / 0 rec)

Hilton was active early on in the game, catching passes in the flat, a couple moved the chains- but for the most part the Chiefs secondary kept him bottled up. Second on the team in targets and catches, Hilton had an opportunity for a huge play as he was the beneficiary to blown coverage down the sideline- however Luck terribly underthrew him, making Hilton dive forward just to catch the ball; he got up and ran for a chunk of yards and it ended up being a 31 yard gain however if placed on the hands, there's no reason why TY couldn't have gotten into the endzone on that one- a real missed opportunity.

2013 Week 17 vs JAX (15 / 11 / 155 / 0 rec)

Catching the most passes he has on the season (11), TY was targeted a whopping 15 times in this game. Active early, Hilton caught four balls on the first possession and that set the tempo for his game. He was getting open on what seemed like every passing play; and his YAC was up there as he caught his passes in stride and would show off his speed after. Only helping the matters was Luck being on with his passes making this combo of pitch and easier even easier. With 24 catches over his last three games, Hilton has hit his stride at the perfect time for this Colts team and hopefully for all parties involved it keeps up during the playoffs.

2013 Week 18 vs KC (18 / 13 / 224 / 2 rec)

Wow is probably the best way to describe the game Hilton played. A massive 18 targets, Hilton caught 13 of them, averaging just over 17 a catch en route to a 2 TD game where he basically did whatever he wanted. You knew it was going to be a TY day when the first three plays from scrimmage ended up being passes caught by him- his fourth catch on that drive ended up going for 6. Seemed like he was always open on the passes he caught, getting himself space at ease. His lone mistake in this one was letting the ball get wrestled away from him, resulting in a Luck INT; but besides that, TY did no wrong. Mastering the sidelines as his area of catching the ball, he was always there for Luck when he needed a play made- including the biggest one of the game- being a 64 yard bomb that he got behind the secondary on rather easy, scoring the touchdown that gave Indy it's first lead of the game. THIS is the kind of game that let's the world know you've taken that next step as a receiver as this goes down as one of the best receiver games in NFL playoff history.

2013 Week 19 vs NE (6 / 4 / 103 / 0 rec)

Belichick is infamous for taking the opponent's top threat out of the game, as we've seen it done time and time again- and like history has shown, this gameplan was no different. Limiting TY to just four catches on the night, six targets in total, Hilton was bottled up from the get go. Shadowed by Talib all game, Hilton was never able to get space in between him and the defender; and while he reached the century mark in receiving yards, it didn't do much damage. His catches themselves were very impressive as he had to make some acrobatic moves to snag a couple of them. Hilton finishes off a season where, when he was given the opportunity, he shined brighter than some imagined he could, finally taking that step to the next level. With Reggie Wayne returning next year and Hilton carving himself a spot in the offense, he should be able to build off his 2013 campaign and be a potentially even bigger force.

2012 Week 2 vs MIN (1 / 1 / 15 / 0 rec)

Hilton was not a big factor in this game and was targeted just the one time, which he made a nice catch on for 15 yards.

2012 Week 3 vs JAX (8 / 4 / 113 / 1 rec)

If there's one thing that is clear about TY Hilton, it is that he is fast...very fast. Hilton was the Colts' primary deep threat against the Jaguars. His touchdown reception epitomized that as he beat the cornerback infront of him on a seam route and was too quick for the safety coming across the field. Hilton's pace repeatedly hurt the Jaguars as he caught a huge reception for a first down on a post route deep in Colts' territory. He caught a second pass on the same drive with seconds left in the fourth quarter. He stumbled initially, before running down the sideline wide open. The pass from Gabbert was slightly underthrown but Hilton did well to adjust and catch it with his hands as a defender launched himself at him. Hilton still needs to improve as an all-around receiver however. He couldn't catch a difficult pass on the sidelines from Luck as he threw it high on an out route. He also dropped a wide open crossing route underneath as he turned his head before the ball was in his hands. He was too eager to make a play after the catch without concentrating on the football.

2012 Week 5 vs GB (9 / 3 / 37 / 0 rec, 1 / 0 / 0 rush)

Hilton was targeted a lot but couldn't get open enough to get the passes (though he was targeted on throw-aways too). His biggest catch was in the fourth during the (eventual) game winning drive. Luck was under heavy pressure and rolled out to his left, looking downfield. He saw Hilton open along the sideline and threw a missile towards the fellow rookie. Hilton made a leaping catch and was almost immediately hauled down by Charles Woodson, but actually kept his feet and dove for a couple more yards. Hilton is raw, but you can see in that one play what the upside of this kid his. He shows great effort and very good hands and it is only a matter of time before he puts it all together.

2012 Week 6 vs NYJ (4 / 3 / 31 / 0 rec)

Hilton showed a willingness to go over the middle and make tough catches. On his team's second drive, Luck found Hilton over the middle for an eight-yard gain. Hilton took a big hit, but was able to secure the catch. Later on in the game, the Colts' made an effort to get the ball to Hilton in space. Hilton grabbed a quick rocket screen and was able to pick up 16 yards after the catch. Hilton is a promising, tough receiver that thrives in space and can make tacklers miss after the catch.

2012 Week 7 vs CLE (5 / 2 / 22 / 0 rec)

Hilton rebounded from an early dropped pass to make a couple of nice catches. Hilton's drop set up third-and-long and ultimately a punt, killing a previously promising drive. Luck remained confident in Hilton, targeting the rookie multiple times following that play. Hilton gained separation at the top of his routes with ease. After that stretch of involvement in the first half, Hilton was silent until later in the second half. Luck and Hilton had a miscommunication on third-and-long. The zone coverage looked to require Hilton to sit down between three defenders and that is where Luck delivered to pass. Instead, Hilton continued his route deep down the field against safety coverage. With more focus on the finer points of the game, Hilton's raw ability to create separation and yards after the catch will shine even brighter.

2012 Week 8 vs TEN (6 / 5 / 35 / 0 rec)

Hilton was targeted 6 times against the Titans, catching 5 balls for a meager 35 yards. Hilton was primarily targeted on receiver screens and quick hitches as Andrew Luck's outlet receiver. His best catch came on a 6 yard quick pass to the left where Hilton was able to catch the ball near the line of scrimmage and turn upfield for a quick six yard gain prior to being pushed out of bounds. Hilton also returned punts for the Colts against the Titans.

2012 Week 9 vs MIA (11 / 6 / 102 / 1 rec, 1 / 1 / 0 rush)

The rookie from Florida International led all Colts in targets with eleven against the Dolphins. Hilton caught six passes for one hundred and two yards, his second game of the season with over one hundred yards receiving. With the third quarter winding down, Hilton snagged a thirty-six yard pass in the end zone from Andrew Luck for his second career touchdown. With multiple defensive backs on top of him, Hilton leaped into traffic to bring down the Luck pass for a Colts touchdown - it was arguably the most impressive play of Week Nine, let alone the game. The speedy Hilton almost had another touchdown reception before his thirty-six yard grab, easily getting separation from the Miami secondary, but he was unable to corral Luck's pass to him as he breached the end zone. Though he is behind Reggie Wayne and Donnie Avery on the depth chart, Hilton seems to have no trouble producing as a rookie in the NFL. As the Colts continue to use three and four-wide sets, Hilton should appear on the highlight reel again before the season ends.

2012 Week 10 vs JAX (1 / 0 / 0 / 0 rec, 2 / 30 / 0 rush)

T.Y Hilton wasn't a big factor on Thursday as teammates WR Wayne/Avery were more involved in the game plan. Hilton did not register a single catch as a result. Wayne was dominating his man one on one so QB Luck looked his way a lot of the time. The Colts also had a strong running presence and they held the lead for almost the entire game which meant they could afford to run the ball more. Hilton's only impact was on 2 end around reverse carries. Hilton looked explosive and hard to tackle on these plays, always managing to outrun the defense to the sideline and explode down it for the first down. Hilton was not able to score on these plays but executed them well and got all available yardage. His lack of targets and catches in the passing game is somewhat alarming but it is most likely the game script and way the game unfolded that somewhat reduced the need for Hilton as a deep threat weapon.

2012 Week 11 vs NE (9 / 6 / 100 / 2 rec)

Hilton had his first reception on a screen pass and carried it forward well for 13 yards. Hilton's second reception went for a touchdown, but more importantly he ran a route from the other side of the field. Hilton isn't just a one trick pony, he used his speed and agility to run a good post route to free himself from Talib to make a sliding reception. Hilton kept working in his route when Luck had defenders dragging off of him in the pocket, the result was a 16 yard gain on third and 12. Hilton caught a quick pass in the flat against off coverage, but the Patriots linebackers read the throw so he was limited to a three yard gain. Hilton's speed was forcing the Patriots to play off coverage, and Hilton took advantage for a first down on a 12 yard curl route. Hilton beat Talib deep down the right sideline for a big touchdown reception, even though Talib was penalized on the play for pass interference.

2012 Week 12 vs BUF (3 / 3 / 33 / 1 rec)

The rookie from Florida-International had a spectacular day on Sunday, scoring both the Colts' TDs sandwiched around a brutal hit on a punt return that nearly saw the end of his day. Hilton took his first punt return 75 yards for a TD, easily weaving through traffic before outrunning Ron Brooks to the end zone. On his next punt return; Hilton was spun around, falling with his back to the oncoming tacklers at midfield. Attacking at full speed, Nigel Bradham smacked Hilton just as he hit the ground, jarring the ball loose and leaving the WR clutching his head on the ground for several minutes. Hilton was able to leave under his own power and ultimately returned to the field for the 2nd half. The Colts didn't hesitate to get Hilton involved once he returned, as he caught Luck's lone TD pass, an eight-yard strike on 3rd and goal in what amounted to the game winning score.

2012 Week 13 vs DET (12 / 6 / 100 / 0 rec)

Hilton had 6 catches for 100 yards but most of the yards came on 2 big plays. Hilton got his hands on a slant bullet pass from Luck over the middle early in the game, which he turned upfield and raced down the field for a big play before getting tackled shy of the goal line. Hilton had some short patterns, including in/out breaking routes and curls displayed good hands as he plucked in balls that were not 100% on target. Hilton got open again down the sideline and showed the great Chemistry/trust that exists between him and Luck as he had another explosive play that ignited the Colts offense. Hilton is a very speedy WR that has the potential to blow past a DB on any play and the quickness to change direction as he turns a slant into a 50+ yard play. Hilton was unable to get into the endzone unfortunately, as got tackled from behind just barely on many of his plays. Luck was also targeting Avery a lot in this game but Hilton has consistently shown he has big play potential that Luck needs when a play needs to be made and puts fear into DB's before they know his route.

2012 Week 14 vs TEN (5 / 2 / 50 / 0 rec, 1 / -2 / 0 rush)

Hilton continues to serve as an excellent complement to Reggie Wayne in the Colts passing attack. He only caught two of the five passes that came his way against the Titans. He primarily runs quick slants, drag routes, and go patterns up the middle of the field. Hilton's best reception came in the first quarter on a crossing pattern from the right side. On the play, Andrew Luck stepped up in the pocket and hit Hilton in stride with the pass. Hilton raced to the sideline and turned upfield for a 36 yard gain. Hilton has excellent open-field speed to go with solid hands. Furthermore, his route-running appears to be improving as the season wears on.

2012 Week 15 vs HOU (6 / 3 / 78 / 1 rec)

Hilton continues to emerge as an excellent second receiving threat next to Reggie Wayne. The Colts line him up both as a slot receiver and split end and utilize his deep speed frequently against zone defenses. Hilton's best catch came on a 61 yard reception that resulted in a touchdown. On the play, Hilton lined up in the slot to the left side and ran a deep slant to the middle of the field. Quarterback Andrew Luck stepped up in the pocket and the threat of him running caused the safeties to step forward, letting Hilton get behind them. Luck delivered a great deep pass which Hilton caught in stride before running the final 25 yards for a touchdown. Hilton is not strong enough to get off the line on quick plays with regularity, but his deep speed and quickness makes him a genuine deep threat each time Andrew Luck has time in the pocket.

2012 Week 16 vs KC (4 / 2 / 34 / 0 rec)

Hilton's first reception was a deep in route between the dropping safety coverage and the underneath linebackers. Hilton caught an out route from a stacked formation for 10 yards and a first down. Hilton faked an end around in the redzone, before reversing the field and throwing an incompletion underneath to Reggie Wayne.

2012 Week 17 vs HOU (6 / 4 / 111 / 1 rec)

Hilton's speed has been lethal all year, and it extinguished the Texans' chances for a first-round bye or homefield advantage. He coasted through the Texans secondary to reel in a 3rd and 23 deep ball from Luck, and almost scored on a late first-half drive with a broken tackle after a short catch. Hilton also drew a pass interference call that extended the game-killing drive, and in general was a prominent target for Luck. Only five receivers had more 100-yard games than Hilton, who is looking like a major steal as a late third-round pick.

2012 Week 18 vs BAL (13 / 8 / 66 / 0 rec)

The Colts made a conscious effort to get Hilton the ball early and often on quick-hitting routes against the Ravens. Five of his targets, and receptions, were on wide receiver screens that were a high-percentage extension of the run game early for the Colts offense. Hilton's most notable play down the field came at a crucial time for the Colts just before halftime. With a promising drive looking all but dead in the final seconds, Luck scrambled around on third-and-26 to find Hilton open on the sidelines. Hilton got out of bounds after the 25-yard gain to set up a 52-yard field goal at the gun. That pulled the Colts to within 10-6 after 30 minutes. When the Colts began moving backwards near field goal range, it looked like they would squander one of their better drives of the first half. Luck and Hilton combined for one of the highlight plays to set up that long Adam Vinatieri kick. In the second half, Hilton took a big hit and limped off after a short reception. It appeared to be a concern with his right leg. He returned to the game, but did not perform as well following getting dinged up. He slipped on a short hitch route and dropped a deep crossing route that was right in his hands after that point.
