The spotlight continues to shine brightly on T.Y. Hilton.
The Indianapolis Colts rookie receiver/return man has been named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week for his impactful game against the Buffalo Bills.
Hilton, a third-round draft pick, gave the Colts a 7-0 first-quarter lead by returning a punt 75 yards for a touchdown. It was the Colts first TD with a punt return since T.J. Rushings 90-yarder at Oakland in 2007.
Thats what they brought me in for, Hilton said of his return skills. Ive got my swag back.
