T.Y. Hilton leads Colts with 81 yards, scores first touchdown

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton caught 4 passes on 5 targets for 81 yards and a touchdown in a 45-26, Week 12 loss to the Tennessee Titans.

What It Means:

Hilton set a season-high and led the Colts in receiving yards despite being out-targeted by Nyheim Hines (10), Michael Pittman Jr. (9), and Trey Burton (6). The majority of Hilton's production came via a 50-yard catch in the fourth quarter with the Colts down by three scores. His touchdown, Hilton's first since Week 7 of last year, also came on a five-yard catch late in the fourth quarter. The veteran wideout may not be as involved in Week 13 against the Houston Texans if the Colts are in a more neutral game script. Per FanDuel Sportsbook, the Colts are currently favored by 2.5 points.

Hilton scored 16.1 FanDuel points in Week 12 after failing to hit double digits in any other game this season. He played the second-most offensive snaps (54-of-74) behind Pittman (64) and was just ahead of Zach Pascal (53). Entering Monday night, the Texans have allowed the third-most touchdowns to wide receivers this season.
