The 'Most 1K-receiving-yard seasons' quiz

Happy 37th birthday to four-time Pro Bowler and 2016 NFL receiving champion, T.Y Hilton!

Hilton was selected in the third round of the 2012 NFL Draft after his college career at Florida International University, where he set program records in receiving yards and touchdowns while playing for current Miami (FL) head coach Mario Cristobal. 

After a solid rookie season, Hilton developed into one of the most consistent wide receivers in the NFL, catching passes from Andrew Luck for most of his prime. Hilton went over 1,000 yards in five of six seasons from 2013-18, posting an NFL-best 1,448 in 2016. 

The retirement of Andrew Luck coincided with Hilton approaching his age-30 season, and his production promptly diminished. He played his last game as Colt in 2021 and sat out most of the 2022 season before signing with the Dallas Cowboys. While he caught just seven passes in three games, he made one splash play with a crucial 52-yard conversion on 3rd-and-30 against the Philadelphia Eagles on Christmas Eve.

Hilton had been out of the NFL since 2022, and officially announced his retirement in March, 2026. He finished with 638 career receptions for 9,812 yards and 53 touchdowns across 11 NFL seasons. 

Which brings us to today’s quiz. Hilton is one of 61 players in NFL history to reach the 1,000-receiving-yard milestone at least five times. How many of those players can you name in eight minutes?

Good luck!
