Colts admit T.Y. Hilton needs to get the ball more

Indianapolis Colts head coach Chuck Pagano admitted the offense has to find ways to get wide receiver T.Y. Hilton the ball more.

What It Means:

Hilton caught just 2 passes on 7 targets for 15 yards in Week 8, marking the fourth time in the past five games he's been held to less than 4 catches and 30 yards. Aside from two blowup spots in Weeks 3 and 5, Hilton has been virtually non-existent this season. Pagano made similar comments about Hilton needing to be more involved in recent weeks, but perhaps it'll actually materialize versus the Houston Texans on Sunday afternoon.

numberFire's models project Hilton for 8.5 targets, 4.2 receptions, 67.2 yards, and 0.30 touchdowns versus the Texans, which would yield 10.5 FanDuel points at a cost of $6,600. He's the WR17 in our Week 9 fantasy rankings.
