The Trouble With T.Y. Hilton

It's been a rough campaign for Colts Wide Receiver, T.Y. Hilton. Not only did he severely bruise his knee during the second game between the New York Jets, but also suffered a severe lack in value due to Quarter Back, Andrew Luck, missing time with a shoulder injury. From a Colts perspective, this his left them without any form of real threat at  Wide Receiver (no offence, Andre Johnson), and from a fantasy perspective, this has left owners disgruntled to say the least.

However, is a change of fortune coming?

Hilton was obviously hobbled by his ailing knee injury for a while, but knee injuries heal, as do shoulder injuries on top Quarter Backs. It is highly likely that Andrew Luck will be back for the Colts week 6 matchup against New England, and once he returns, there is very little limit to T.Y's value. The QB/WR connection both Hilton and Luck have is one of the best in the league, and it is only improving with time (Hilton has improved his receiving yards and target numbers continuously over the past three years), and with the Colts running game looking average at best, now is the time for Hilton to make a come-back and forget the bad fortunes of the first 5 weeks.

If you're a fantasy owner, hold onto Hilton. If you're a Colts fan, get ready for some serious production from 2 of the best players in the league.
