T.Y. Hilton Won't Be A Top-36 Wide Receiver

Why This Is Bold: T.Y. Hilton was last week's top scoring wide receiver, exploding for 175 yards and 2 touchdowns. Despite the week-to-week inconsistency, Hilton ranks as the seventh-best receiver in fantasy this season.

Why This Will Happen: Hilton was limited in Thursday's practice and was added to the injury report on Thursday with a groin injury. Even despite a potential soft-tissue injury to a receiver that relies on his speed to succeed, Hilton and the Indianapolis Colts are in a tough spot this week.

The Colts take on the Pittsburgh Steelers who rank eighth in Adjusted Defensive Passing NEP per play. While Hilton has been limited to fewer than 6 targets just once this year, he has only caught 5 or more passes and cleared 60 yards three times.

Hilton has been the ultimate boom or bust play with Jacoby Brissett at the helm, struggling immensely in tough matchups like this one.
