Dallas Cowboys wide receiver T.Y. Hilton made a catch in the Divisional Round, gaining 15 yards. It was his only target of the game. Hilton joined the Cowboys late in the season and showed that he still has something left in the tank. He should be able to find a team to play for early next season, possibly even the Cowboys.
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver T.Y. Hilton made two catches in a Wild Card Round win over the Tampa Bay Bucs. He was targeted four times and made the two catches for a total of 23 yards. With the Cowboys passing game clicking well throughout the game, Hilton settled into a complementary wide out role behind CeeDee Lamb and Michael Gallup. He'll likely play a similar role in a Divisional Round game against the San Francisco 49ers.
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver T.Y. Hilton made two catches in a Week 18 loss to the Washington Commanders. He was targeted four times, with his two catches going for a total of 19 yards. Hilton has played a key role on the field since signing with the Cowboys, and should continue to be an important asset in the playoffs. The Cowboys will face the Tampa Bay Bucs in the first round.
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver T.Y. Hilton had a good game in a Week 17 win over the Tennessee Titans. He was targeted five times, catching four passes for 50 yards, including a long play of 28 yards. Hilton has taken over the WR2 role behind CeeDee Lamb in the Cowboys offense, but he's playing behind tight end Dalton Schultz as well. Still, Hilton has shown that he's still able to play, and he's pushed Michael Gallup and Noah Brown further away from fantasy relevance.
Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said on 105.3 The Fan that wide receiver T.Y. Hilton will be active in Week 16 against the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday. "He should impact us immediately. I expect him to be involved and counted on," Jones said. Hilton was signed last week but wasn't active in the Week 15 overtime loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. He'll be making his team debut on Christmas Eve, although fantasy managers should take Jones' comments with a grain of salt. The 33-year-old will have plenty of competition for targets in Dallas alongside CeeDee Lamb, Michael Gallup and Noah Brown, so it's highly unlikely he'll produce fantasy relevant numbers in his first game with the team on Saturday. Hilton played in 10 games for the Indianapolis Colts in 2021, catching 23 passes for 331 yards and three touchdowns.
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver T.Y. Hilton will not make his debut with the team in Week 15 against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday after being signed on Monday. Tight end Jake Ferguson (concussion) was also ruled out due to a concussion. It was reported earlier this week that Hilton had a good shot of being active this weekend, but that didn't turn out to be the case. The 33-year-old needs to get up to speed with Dallas' playbook, and even when he does make his 2022 debut, there's a good chance he'll be buried on the receiver depth chart behind CeeDee Lamb, Michael Gallup, Noah Brown and James Washington. Rookie Jalen Tolbert is also a healthy scratch for Week 15.
T.Y. Hilton Expected To Make Cowboys Debut On Sunday
The Dallas Cowboys just signed veteran wide receiver T.Y. Hilton for the rest of the season earlier this week, but he is already expected to suit up for a Week 15 matchup with the Jacksonville Jaguars. The long-time Colts wideout appeared in 10 games last year and accumulated 23 receptions for 331 yards and three touchdowns. It's unclear exactly how involved he will be right away, but Hilton will provide some needed depth to Dallas' receiver corps down the stretch. His snap counts and targets should be monitored, but Hilton is unlikely to make much of a fantasy impact this season.
The Dallas Cowboys secured some veteran receiver help by signing long-time Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton on Monday, according to his agents. Hilton was on a visit with the Cowboys on Monday and should provide help down the stretch of the regular season and in the postseason. Hilton hasn't played all season after catching 23 of his 37 targets for 331 yards and three touchdowns in 10 games for the Colts in 2021. The 33-year-old made four straight Pro Bowls from 2014-17 and has five 1,000-yard receiving seasons, but he'll mostly serve as depth in Dallas behind CeeDee Lamb, Michael Gallup, Noah Brown and James Washington, who just made his debut in the Week 14 win over the Houston Texans.
Colts Still Talking With T.Y. Hilton But Not Julio Jones
Indianapolis Colts general manager Chris Ballard said that the team has continued to have dialogue with free-agent wide receiver T.Y. Hilton, but they have not had any discussions with Julio Jones. The Colts aren't desperate to add to their receiver room, and they have plenty of familiarity with Hilton after he played for them for the last 10 seasons. The four-time Pro Bowler has really fallen off the last several seasons, though, and he had career-lows across the board in 2021 with 23 receptions for 331 yards and three touchdowns in just 10 games due to injuries. Even if the 32-year-old veteran re-signs with the Colts, he'll struggle to general meaningful targets alongside Michael Pittman Jr., Parris Campbell and rookie Alec Pierce.
The Cleveland Browns are not one of the two teams besides the Indianapolis Colts that are having "fruitful" talks with free-agent wide receiver T.Y. Hilton, according to a source. The Browns are happy with their receiving room, even though Amari Cooper is the only proven veteran, and they aren't feeling pressured to add a legitimate No. 2. Former Houston Texans pass-catcher Will Fuller also isn't on the Browns radar, even though a source said he'd love to play with quarterback Deshaun Watson again. The Browns are hoping second-year receiver Anthony Schwartz can fulfill some downfield duties. Cleveland feels they have enough pass-catching options with tight ends David Njoku and Harrison Bryant set for plenty of targets in 2022. It's also good news for Donovan Peoples-Jones, who is set to start across from Cooper.
