Philip Rivers and the Indianapolis Colts appear to be headed for their fifth win of the season. However, one of their best players suffered an injury during Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions, and it doesn't look great.

Wide receiver T.Y. Hilton suffered a groin injury during the first half and did not return for the remainder of the game. He went to the locker room with minimal time left in the first half and had just two catches for nine yards before exiting.

The Colts have struggled with injuries at receiver throughout the season. Second-year receiver Parris Campbell is out with a knee injury and rookie Michael Pittman Jr. returned Sunday after missing three games with a calf injury.

Hilton, who will be a free agent at the end of the season, is off to the slowest start of his career. He entered Sunday's game with 20 catches for 242 yards and no touchdowns.
