Hilton hauled in eight catches (on 13 targets) for 66 yards as Indianapolis fell at the hands of Baltimore in Sunday's wild-card matchup.

Analysis: Hilton quickly made an impression in his rookie season, notching four receptions for 113 yards and a touchdown in a Week 2 defeat to Jacksonville. From that point onward, he received four or fewer looks in just four of 14 outings, recording 50 receptions (on 91 targets) for 861 yards and seven scores in 2012. He clearly formed a rapport with fellow first-year phenom Andrew Luck, scattering five 100-yard performances throughout the season. With a full offseason to work on their chemistry, the Luck-Hilton combo appears as if it will become the new bread and butter of the Colts' offense for years to come.

Hilton had four receptions for 111 yards, including a 70-yard touchdown, in Sunday's win over Houston. He finished his rookie season with 50 receptions for 861 yards and seven touchdowns.

Analysis: Hilton has emerged as Andrew Luck's big play receiver, but splits the targets in the passing game with Donnie Avery after Reggie Wayne. Avery was bothered by a shoulder injury in Sunday's game and was held to one target, but Avery may be more healthy during the playoffs.

Hilton had three catches on six targets for 78 yards and a touchdown Sunday against the Texans.

Analysis: Hilton led the Colts in receiving yards and co-led in receptions, although a majority of his fantasy stats came on a 61-yard touchdown with just over a minute left in the first half. Hilton has now scored a touchdown or reached 100 yards in five of the past seven games, keeping himself very relevant in most fantasy leagues.

Hilton a Week 14 sleeper

In his "Week 14 Sleepers" analysis, Adam Rank notes, "Yes, Donnie Avery came up huge against the Lions, but Andy Luck looked for Hilton a lot, as he ended up with 12 targets. Hilton has scored nine fantasy points in four of his last five games." FULL SLEEPERS REPORT

Analysis: Hilton should have another good performance against a Titans secondary which is tied for the second-most (24) passing scores allowed this season.

Hilton had six catches on 12 targets for 100 yards Sunday against the Lions.

Analysis: Hilton has four touchdown catches in the last three games and has clearly become a very valuable target for rookie quarterback Andrew Luck. Up next is a Titans' defense that has struggled against the pass this season.

Hilton a Week 13 sleeper

In his "Week 13 Sleepers" report, Adam Rank notes the "Lions have allowed five touchdown passes in their last three home games, so Hilton should have his chances." FULL SLEEPERS REPORT

Analysis: Hilton has really turned it on over the past couple of weeks with four touchdown receptions in the last four games. And if you get rewarded for return points, he's a must-start for you this week.

Hilton the steal of the draft

In his "Move the Sticks" report, NFL.com's Daniel Jeremiah notes, "Andrew Luck is the headliner in Indianapolis, but Hilton, who leads the team with five receiving touchdowns, was the steal of the draft for the Colts." READ: MOVE THE STICKS

Analysis: The third-round pick has provided an explosive presence down the field, and complements veteran receiver Reggie Wayne quite nicely. Against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, Hilton also returned a punt for a touchdown.

Hilton (head) had three catches on three targets for 33 yards and a touchdown Sunday against the Bills. He also returned a punt 75 yards for another score.

Analysis: Hilton suffered a head injury on a nasty hit early in the game but was able to return to action and score both touchdowns. The rookie wideout has been very good for the Colts this season and he'll look to extend the good numbers next week against a Bills defense that came into Sunday ranked 18th against the pass.

Hilton multi-tasks

T.Y. Hilton scored on a 75-yard punt return and caught an 8-yard touchdown pass Sunday, leading the Indianapolis Colts to a 20-13 victory over the Buffalo Bills. The rookie finished with 33 yards receiving for the day. WATCH HIGHLIGHTS

Analysis: Hilton has emerged as the top threat opposite Reggie Wayne. He's also scored no less than 9.30 fantasy points in three of his last four games.

Hilton (head) was able to return to Sunday's game against the Bills, Phillip B Wilson of the Indianapolis Star reports.

Analysis: Since returning, Hilton has scored both a receiving TD and a punt return TD, so he's obviously fine after being shaken up earlier in the game.

Hilton suffered a head injury Sunday against the Bills, Phillip B Wilson of the Indianapolis Star reports.

Analysis: Prior to his exit from Sunday's game, Hilton recorded one catch for 18 yards. His absence Sunday figures to create added opportunities for rookie wideout LaVon Brazill.

Luck faces favorable schedule

In his Week 12 "Strength of Schedule" analysis, Marcas Grant notes, "It's not all sunshine and light for Andrew Luck and company down the stretch, especially that Week 15 game against the Texans. But the way the young man has been slinging it so far, those games against the Bills, Titans and Chiefs make Luck and Reggie Wayne pretty hard to resist in the final weeks of the season." FULL S.O.S.

Analysis: With Donnie Avery suffering from injury, Luck could lean on Wayne and teammate T.Y. Hilton even more in these prime matchups. Expect a bounce-back performance against a Bills secondary which has allowed 19 scores compared to just eight interceptions.

Hilton had six catches on nine targets for 100 yards and two touchdowns Sunday against the Patriots.

Analysis: Hilton stepped up after fellow wideout Donnie Avery was knocked out of Sunday's game with a concussion. Hilton has been the definition of up-and-down recently, going for 102 yards and a touchdown in Week 9, failing to catch a pass in Week 10, and then Sunday's 100-yard, two touchdown performance. If Avery is forced to miss any time with the concussion, Hilton's fantasy value should increase.

Hilton did not have a catch Thursday against the Jaguars, but did rush twice for 30 yards in the game.

Analysis: While Reggie Wayne and Donnie Avery combined for 17 targets, Hilton was only targeted once Thursday, a disappointing outcome, given that he had combined for 11 catches over his previous two outings. Hilton has teased owners with a couple of big games this season, but when both Wayne and Avery are healthy, Hilton figures to be a hit-or-miss option, though working in his favor is that next up for the Colts in Week 11 are the Patriots, who thus far have had issues stopping the pass.

Colts are a Super Bowl contender

In his "Super Bowl Contenders" analysis, NFL.com's Bucky Brooks notes Luck is, "tied for fourth in the NFL in passing yards and leads the league with 37 completions of 20-plus yards. The Colts defense has surprised at times this season as well." READ: SUPER BOWL CONTENDERS

Analysis: While a matchup against the Jaguars 25th ranked secondary will be too good to pass up, they have only allowed 9 touchdowns through the air and Luck has totaled 9,5, and 16 fantasy points in three games on the road this season. Temper expectations despite Luck's great performance last week.

Hilton had six catches on 11 targets for 102 yards and a touchdown Sunday against the Dolphins.

Analysis: Hilton topped the 100-yard mark for the second time this season and his 11 targets led the Colts on Sunday. While Reggie Wayne and Donnie Avery remain ahead of him on the depth chart, rookie quarterback Andrew Luck appears to have enough in him to have three wideouts with fantasy value.

Hilton had five receptions for 35 yards in Sunday's win over Tennessee. He also returned one punt for 13 yards.

Analysis: Donnie Avery (seven targets) and Hilton (six targets) continue to equally split the passes thrown to receivers after Reggie Wayne.

Hilton had two receptions for 22 yards in Sunday's win over Cleveland.

Analysis: He was targeted five times as he continues to split the targets with Donnie Avery as the second option in the passing game after Reggie Wayne.

Hilton among top Colts targets

In his Week 6 list of sleepers, fantasy expert Adam Rank notes Hilton "had nine targets against the Packers, and he tied with Coby Fleener for second-most on the team." FULL SLEEPERS LIST

Analysis: Hilton racked up 113 yards and a score in Week 3, so he is fully capable of posting big numbers. Consider him if you're left with few options due to the bye week, but he does come with risk.

Hilton had three receptions for 37 yards in Sunday's win over Green Bay.

Analysis: While he didn't have a big game statistically, it was noteworthy he tied for the second most targets on the team with Coby Fleener. It looks like Hilton and Donnie Avery could becoming more equals as the second receiver option after Reggie Wayne.

Collie done for the season

Another brutal break for Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Austin Collie. He's going to miss the season with a torn Achilles tendon.

Analysis: You have to wonder if this is the end for Collie. In the short term, however, it means more opportunities for T.Y. Hilton and Donnie Avery to see targets. Andrew Luck is still in search of a consistent No. 2 option.

Hilton had four catches for 113 yards and a touchdown Sunday against the Jaguars.

Analysis: Hilton scored a 40-yard touchdown in the first quarter and was targeted eight times Sunday. He's certainly putting the pressure on Donnie Avery for who should get the looks after Reggie Wayne. Fellow wideout Austin Collie made his season debut, although he left with an injury and therefore Hilton's playing time could remain consistent.

Hilton (shoulder) will play Sunday versus Minnesota.

Analysis: Hilton will take on a large role in the return game, as expected, but with Austin Collie out due to a relapse of concussion symptoms, he should see the field a fair amount as the No. 3 wideout.

Hilton (shoulder) fully participated in practice Friday and is listed as probable against Minnesota, according to the team's official web site. He's expected to return kicks this week, the Indianapolis Star reports.

Analysis: It's not clear if he'll handle both kickoffs and punt returns, but he should have a big role on special teams. He may also get time as the No. 3 or No. 4 receiver with Austin Collie unlikely to play again due to a concussion.

Hilton (shoulder) fully participated in practice Thursday, according to the team's official web site reports.

Analysis: Hilton is expected to play this week and could take over punt return duties and get significant playing time as a third or fourth receiver.

Hilton (shoulder) is expected to play this week against Minnesota, head coach Chuck Pagano told the Indianapolis Star.

Analysis: Lavon Brazill fumbled a kickoff last week, so Hilton could take over both punt and kickoff returns this week. He could eventually carve out a role as the third or fourth receiver in the offense.

Hilton (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game at Chicago, the Indianapolis Star reports.

Analysis: Lavon Brazill may return both punts and kicks against the Bears as a result.

Hilton (shoulder) was limited in Friday's practice and is listed as questionable this week against Chicago, the team's official web site reports.

Analysis: Hilton was limited all week even though he had two weeks to recover from the injury he suffered during the preseason, so we wouldn't count on him to play. Lavon Brazill may return both punts and kicks against the Bears as a result.

Hilton (shoulder) was listed as a limited participant in Thursday's practice, according to the Indianapolis Star.

Analysis: If Hilton can't play, Lavon Brazill may return both punts and kicks against the Bears.

Hilton (shoulder) was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, according to the team's official web site.

Analysis: Hilton hurt his shoulder in Indy's third preeseason game. He's a candidate to return punts or kicks and could become a factor in the passing game, but this injury may keep him to a limited role this week.

Hilton (shoulder) did not practice Tuesday, the Indianapolis Star reports.

Analysis: Hilton hurt his shoulder in Saturday's preseason game. He'll likely miss Indy's final preseason game but he may have enough time to recover before the regular season begins. However, watch his injury closely since he's had a poor track record when it comes to injuries.

Hilton had four receptions for 54 yards, including a 31-yard touchdown reception, in Saturday's preseason loss to Washington. However, he left the game with a shoulder injury, the Indianapolis Star reports.

Analysis: Hilton made amends for dropping a deep ball in last week's preseason game by hauling in a long touchdown strike from Andrew Luck. Hilton could emerge as the No. 2 or No. 3 receiver at the start of the regular season if Austin Collie remains out with a concussion. He has the speed to make an impact, but he has durability concerns after an injury-plagued college career.

Hilton had two receptions for 37 yards in Sunday's preseason loss to Pittsburgh. He bobbled a pass that resulted in an interception.

Analysis: Hilton caught just two of six targets and likely should have caught the interception. However, he showed his speed on a 29-yard reception. He could move into a more prominent role earlier than expected if Austin Collie is sidelined for an extended period with a head injury.

Hilton had three receptions for 25 yards in Sunday's preseason win over St. Louis. He also fielded Indy's only punt return, gaining six yards.

Analysis: It looks like Hilton will win the punt return job. It was thought he'd win the third receiver job, and he may eventually do so, but he's behind Lavon Brazill and Donnie Avery (if healthy) at this point in training camp. Still, he did catch one pass from Andrew Luck with the first-team offense, so he's in the mix and his speed may give him the most upside of the group.

Hilton made a strong impression in Monday's practice by catching a deep touchdown from Andrew Luck, the Indianapolis Star reports. He appears healthy after missing some time in spring practices with a sore hamstring and quadriceps.

Analysis: Hilton may have the most upside of the Indianapolis receivers as his speed could make him a nice deep threat. However, he enters training camp fighting for a prominent role and it's not clear if he'll be used in the return game, where he could also have a significant impact.

Hilton (quadriceps) did not participate in on-field drills in Wednesday's OTAs, the Indianapolis Star reports.

Analysis: Hilton missed workouts earlier in May with a sore hamstring and it's not clear if the two injuries are related. This injury is likely minor, but it's not reassuring, since he had a checkered injury history in college. Hilton could win a significant role in the Indy passing game and on special teams as a returner, if healthy.

Hilton saw limited work during the last couple days of the Colts' rookie minicamp due to a sore hamstring, cbssports.com reports.

Analysis: Assuming this isn't a major hamstring issue, this nugget isn't too concerning right away, but given the speedster's injury history in college, his status will be worth verifying going forward.
