IND WR T.Y. Hilton - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 at Houston Texans

T.Y. Hilton had his best game of the year last week against the Titans, catching four of five balls thrown his way for 81 yards and his first touchdown of the season. Hilton has been hobbled at times, and struggled to get on the same page as new quarterback Philip Rivers, but he still has the ability to make plays when healthy.

Hilton has a nice matchup this week against a Texans defense that ranks 28th in aFPA to opposing wide receivers. His lack of production this year makes him very, very risky, but the upside is there coming off a good week in a great matchup. Consider him a risky, low-end WR3 option.

IND WR T.Y. Hilton - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 at Detroit Lions

Despite a great matchup against the Bengals, T.Y. Hilton caught just one of the five balls thrown his way before the bye last week, totaling only 11 yards. Hilton has averaged 6.2 targets per game this year, so there’s reason for optimism, but until he starts to produce, it’s hard to recommend starting him in any given week. It seems as though he’s not fully on the same page as quarterback Philip Rivers, as he’s caught just 20 of his 37 targets all year.

This week, Hilton faces a Lions’ defense that ranks 19th in aFPA to opposing wide receivers, so he could do well. However, Rivers hasn’t been using his wide receivers a ton this year, making it risky to trust any of them. Hilton should be considered a low-end desperation starter this week with boom-bust potential.

IND WR T.Y. Hilton - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 vs. Cincinnati Bengals

T.Y. Hilton only had 69 yards last week, but it was a season-high for him, and it was on six receptions and 10 targets. It was good to see him lead the team in targets, even considering the Colts were trailing for much of the contest. Hilton is still developing a rapport with Philip Rivers, but he’s worth holding on to considering the attrition in the Indianapolis receiving corps.

This week, Hilton faces a Bengals defense that ranks 21st in aFPA to opposing wide receivers and just gave up 19.7 PPR points to Marquise Brown a week ago. It’s a nice matchup for Hilton, and if the Bengals can put up some points offensively and keep the Colts throwing, Hilton could once again see heavy targets. Fantasy owners should consider him a risky, but quality WR3 option in deep formats.

IND WR T.Y. Hilton - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at Cleveland Browns

T.Y. Hilton hasn’t had a good start to the season, punctuated by just three catches and 29 yards on five targets last week against the Bears. It was his second game of the year under 30 yards and the most yards he’s had is 53. This might be the last week Hilton is worth considering as a starter. Cleveland ranks 30th in aFPA to opposing wide receivers, giving Hilton a good chance to rebound in a nice matchup. If he can’t do it this week, he becomes a matchup-based backup on most rosters. We have him ranked as a low-end WR3 with upside this week.

IND WR T.Y. Hilton - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 at Chicago Bears

T.Y. Hilton had three catches for 52 yards last week. The Colts dominated the Jets, including scoring 14 points defensively, limiting the need to throw the ball. Rivers had just 21 pass attempts. Hilton was limited to just three targets, which is concerning, but he should still be the top receiver in this offense, particularly with both Parris Campbell and Michael Pittman hurt.

This week, Hilton has a tough matchup against a Chicago Bears defense that ranks third in the league in aFPA to opposing wide receivers. While the Colts should throw a little more this week than last, it’s hard to recommend him as anything more than a low-end WR3 option in most leagues, due to the matchup.

IND WR T.Y. Hilton - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. New York Jets

T.Y. Hilton hasn’t had a great start to the season with just 81 yards through two games. However, he’s been targeted 14 times, including nine times in Week 1, and last week got 20% of Philip Rivers’ pass attempts sent his way. Hilton might be done flirting with WR1 numbers on a weekly basis, but he still has the ability to be a WR2 option.

Careful with him this week against the Jets. While it’s a great matchup against a terrible defense, we might see something similar to last week where the Colts get up early and run the ball, limiting targets for everyone. Downgrade Hilton to WR3/Flex territory for the time being.

IND WR T.Y. Hilton - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 vs. Minnesota Vikings

T.Y. Hilton had nine targets last week against the Jaguars, but he was held to just four catches and 53 yards. The targets are the key element to look at however, tied for the team-high and showing a decent rapport with new quarterback Philip Rivers. The Colts will look to rebound from a close loss to a division rival as they face the Vikings this week, another team reeling from getting trounced by the Packers in Week 1.

The Vikings really struggled in the secondary, as Green Bay receivers scored four touchdowns against them last week, and they often looked out of position. If that continues into Week 2, then Hilton should benefit. We have him ranked as a fringe WR2/WR3 option this week and he should be active in most leagues.
