Already ruled out for week 5 by coach. Not unexpected with the quick turnaround.

Per one of the Colts beat writers this hamstring issue could be awhile

whos the main beneficiary of an extended Hilton absence? Grant? Rogers? Nobody?

I’m going with Cam instead of Luck this week if that’s any answer.

Yeah Indy’s WR corps is thin af beyond T.Y.

I can't believe the lack of talent the Colts have provided Luck. They have a once-in-a-decade QB with no offensive line, only 1 viable WR and no RBs. JFC.
That should have been the case every week anyway.I’m going with Cam instead of Luck this week if that’s any answer.

You’d be surprised. In 4 games, it’s been 1 Cam, 2 Luck, and the 60+ points Luck just gave me on Cam’s BYE makes this a harder decision. Hilton being out is the decider here.
CAR against a fairly tough Giants secondary is less than ideal.

Grant is the better player so I think his numbers go up most.
But keep an eye on Zach Pascal. They look like they are going to get him involved and he could surprise.

I traded him minutes before he was announced out last week. Feel bad... sort of.

Same boat. Both could be back and fine the rest of the year though. Hilton will produce when healthy, I would hold tight.

Updates for this week?

Needs a better GM. They've drafted so many pointless DL's/DBs the past few years .

I dont get the love for T.Y Hilton, he really hasn't been great .never has more than 7 TDs in a season, usually averages about 80 recs/yr.
Rogers looks so much better and Luck seems more than happy to exploit his capabilities in games.

If he hadn't gotten hurt, I don't think its crazy to think he might be the #1 overall WR right now. He was getting 10+ targets every game before he got hurt, and that was with Luck not throwing deep, and averaging about 14 fewer passes a game when Hilton was playing.
If/when he comes back 100%, I think he's certainly a WR1, and likely a top-5 WR unless Indy undergoes massive playcalling changes.

I don't think that anyone would ever put him in the top tier of WRs, but he's a bottom half WR1 when Luck is healthy. He may never be the top WR, but he was the #5 WR two years ago.

Originally it was the ribs going into the last game he played, but then he hurt his hammy during that game.

Sounds at least decent chance he’ll make it this week. Then just hoping it doesn’t pop again.
If he stays healthy there’s no reason he won’t be a stud rest of the way on this team. Awful offense, no run game, Luck throwing 50 times a game.

Very happy to see a full practice on Wednesday. Bodes well for this weekend!

Bills have a nasty DB but firing up the TY train.

yes really ? ( not sure what a pumpkin icon means but it's funny).not sure we're seeing the same guy, but just look at the numbers.he doesnt score TDs.he doesn't catch a lot of passes.his fantasy stats come from yards only. very dependent on the yards. In 7 years in the NFL he averages 64 recs/yr. only once has he caught more than 82 passes in a single season. He averages 5.14 TD/yr, 1017 yards/yr.
so, you're guishing over a guy with a career stat line of
64/1017/5?!?! is that what you're saying? he's a bum dude. he's not even a top 30 WR on a GOOD day..cmon now.
you're living on his one lone season of 91 catches that happened a coiuple years ago and hasn't been approached since.
beam me up, Scotty..my work is done here.

He didn't have his QB last year and has been hurt this year? The leagues I play in offer points for yardage so he ends up being pretty useful. Per game he has averaged 73 yards per contest. I think you would be surprised on how that stacks up statistically against other wide receiver careers. The great Antonio Brown is 86/game, DeAndre Hopkins 76/game, Tyreek Hill 63/game just to name a few.
Hilton is hardly a useless bum. I don't think anyone is calling him the best receiver in the game, but he is a great WR2 when him and his QB are healthy. And had Luck been healthy last year it would not have been a stretch to think he would have had his strongest statistical year as of yet. One caveat is that It is yet to be determined if Luck's injury is still limiting deep plays which are Hilton's specialty. Nonetheless I would be happy to have him as a WR2.

Hope so. Just traded for him yesterday as well with these same thoughts. Has the potential to be a high end 1 if things continue as they have with the offense.

I don't think I've ever seen "very dependent on the yards" before. This is a real bad take and probably an obvious troll that I took the bait for.

Brown has slowed down and is 2nd or 3rd fiddle. Game script might force a lot of pass attempts for Flacco. A huge game could be in play. But we already know Luck will be slinging it.15 targets for Hilton is not out of the question looking at the Colts roster. On the other hand he has a tough match up.
Close call. I'm going with the don't bench your studs policy, if you want to call Hilton one.

I'm in the same boat having Brown and Hilton. Brown seems to be fading as Snead and Crabtree are getting more looks. Fortunately, my opponent already played DJ and DT on Thursday and didn't get much. May make TY the safer play.

Nah. Swat those down. In dynasty I got Alex Collins & Dede offered. I'm dying for RB2 help but hell no.
I really think TY is a buy target, not a sell. The table is set. Look forward, not backwards.

Probably right, but my team is abysmal - I joined a ongoing devy league last year as a dispersal team, so my team was already weaker than others, then I lost Freeman and McKinnon for the season. Right now my only productive valuable pieces are Mahomes, luck, and Hilton. I'm going to have a top 2 pick no matter what I do (sort of mortgaging the future to win another game or two at most).
So I have been shopping Hilton. I have one offer of a college wr I like but he's not one of the elites, and the other essentially comes down to Hilton for penny

I'd like to see him make it through an entire game without pulling a hammy 
Sky's the limit, TY...make it happen!

He's a classic case of a guy who has more true value to your team vs perceived value on open market. I'd be looking to move Luck, not TY.

I'd move TY way before simply because of age. TY maybe has 3 years left. Luck could play 8 more.... at a high level.
