Andrew Luck threw for 433 yards and two touchdowns in Week 9, and T.Y. Hilton benefited greatly from the huge passing day for the Colts. Hilton caught six passes for 102 yards and a touchdown on a team-high 11 targets against the Dolphins.
T.Y. Hilton sees fantasy value increase with approval from Andrew Luck
T.Y. Hilton is becoming a bigger target for Andrew Luck. We break down the fantasy implications.

Luck praised Hilton’s play afterwards, calling him “phenomenal” and “dynamic”.
Fantasy Impact: Hilton exploded for 113 yards and a score earlier this season against the Jaguars, but he stayed relatively quiet over the past few weeks. He continues to improve as a rookie, though, and is clearly winning over his quarterback.
If Luck keeps putting in ridiculous numbers like he did in Week 9, Hilton could become a viable option for your lineup. He’ll have another chance to repeat his success next week against Jacksonville.
